Oddly enough I think the high HP and race oriented equipment may reduce the number of buyers. You may be better off converting it to more of a hot driver and sell the hard core stuff seperately .
 
The question is more about what someone will pay. It’s not worth the sum of the parts. I’d say because it’s more go than show somewhere in the $20-25k area? More if you find “the ***” for your seat.

Not entirely true, the guy that painted it for me tried to talk me into putting it in car shows , it would need the door handles replaced , along with the tail light housings , and of course a little detailing ------
forgot, 4 wheel disc brakes , all new brake lines too.
IT IS between a drag car and a driver ,the reason for getting ready to re do the orig. front end . I got old while building it , the reason for thinking about changing stuff again , still a kick a$$ street car tho.
Sure is neat wasting corvettes and mustangs on the 4 lane .
 
I'll see your $20-25 and raise you to $30 g's. Second gen Barracudas are hot. On the street or on the track.

So you’re going to pay that for it? No. You just think somebody else will. I’m a skeptic. Im not saying it’s not nice. It’s a cool ride and looks well done. But the market is not “all that” for customized A Bodies. If it was a Hemi clone done to look original I’d agree. It’s a hot rod, and personalized. So seller needs to find the right *** for the seat.

Always remember - you only need one buyer... If you aren't in a hurry to sell you might do really well at the high end of the scale.
