    Hey everyone...

    How much could I sell my car for? Just wondering...

    Here is the shape the car is in:

    1969.5 Ford Maverick 2 door
    Blue exterior, almost perfect blue plaid interior besides the carpet
    Rebuilt 200 I6, bigger cam, perfect fan shroud
    C4 Tranny, Needs new tranny but a rebuilt c4 will be supplied when car is bought.
    dual outlet headers with dual side exhaust, smithy glasspacks
    completely rebuilt front suspension (needs alignment)
    Aluminum slot wheels 4 lug 13" in front and 14" in back.
    Drum brakes...needs work
    bad gastank
    rough body...lots of surface rust...only 2 small spots needing sheet metal.
    Needs a hood
    No A/C
    AM radio
    Im sure there is more that I haven't thought about but thats it for now.

    It's a pretty low-optioned car. I wouldn't expect to get much $$. It really depends on how badly someone wants it...

    The more I think about it, the more I think I'm just panicking about my finances...I prolly won't sell it. It's just that I need to take care of some other things...don't worry...no lone shark stuff :rofl2: . My girlfriend says that I know I'll probably be alright It's just that I'm really nervous. I'm not even going to be able to take full time hours at college this semester.

    Well it's a good project-car. If you sold it, you'd probably be sorry later...

    Keep the car let it sit until you have money. That's why it is called a project. Many people have lost interest because of money problems. Just walk away until you have the time and money to get back at it and you will be happier than selling it and regretting it later.

    Too bad you didn't build a nice 250 instead of the 200 ... Myself as well as some other folks would have been happy to take that off your hands. Hopefully you get everything worked out and you keep the car ... from what I have seen you put alot of work into it ...
