Thinking of selling my 70 Swinger - opinions wanted

Yah, if there's rust/bubbles/bodywork that needs fixing, that'll hurt the sale. Even just paint problems is OK if there's solid metal under it. Most guys can fix little stuff themselves. I looked at a 71 Scamp, looked good in the ad, had paint a few years ago, guy wanted $7K for it. Magnet test showed non-metal repairs in the usual places. I backed away. He emailed me a couple weeks ago asking if I was interested in it at $4K.

Depending what you have into it, I wouldn't expect to make a big profit, especially these days. If you want out and you can do so with minimal losses, I'd call that a plus. I took a big hit on my E-body, but I found my Scamp with money left over to do what it needs. I'm calling it a wash.
