I was just curious of how others put a price on a car that they built. If they want to sell it.
My guess you'd have to research what similar cars sale for in the area you plan on selling it, not what their asking. Like a guy around me been asking $35,000 for 3-4 years now for restored 340 Duster, he may get it some day but obviously not a selling price.I was just curious of how others put a price on a car that they built.

That's the going price for a 340 car here in Missouri.My guess you'd have to research what similar cars sale for in the area you plan on selling it, not what their asking.

I am thinking of selling my 65 dart...A car is I worth what somebody will pay for it. That is why it is important to do some research before advertising and pricing. I do not know if you are thinking about selling one, or if that was just a curiosity question. If I wanted to sell my 69 340 4 speed Barracuda with PS, AC and disk brakes, I would start with a good internet search. Remember that what you will mostly see is asking prices, but that would be a good first step. Then I would post pictures here on FABO and ask people if they have any real world knowledge of what a similar car has actually sold for. You will want to take a close and honest look at your car, because a lot of lookers will try to nit pick every minor flaw. Then I would take what I considered to be the researched selling price, add about 10-15% for negotiation wiggle room and advertise it. If you did all the work yourself, and you do good work, you might be able to break even IF you didn't pay too much for it, but losing 10% or so is more likely. If you had to pay to have a lot done, then plan on losing up to 50%. If you pay 15K for major body work and paint alone, that will be hard to recover. Plus, you have to consider what you are selling. Some cars are more valuable than others. It much easier to get upside down in a less desirable car than a more desirable one.
$15,000-20What are you guys think about this? Just a ballpark worth.

ThanksDon’t know what your car is worth but I like the Whizzer bike
I listed it earlier today on here. We'll see what happens. I think it's a fair price.
ThanksWould be a good idea to wash down the outside body, get the dust off it and polish it up.
Same with the interior, detail it out.
Want to attract a buyer, good pictures and nice backgrounds help too.

Got a nice factory 383/4 speed body 99 percent rust free beautiful paint does have tubs but not butchered. How about 25k and at least you would be starting with something that's worth real money when you are done not a 318 car.I'm thinking around $25,000.00. Mopars are high in Missouri. There's a guy that has a 1969 dart with a 273 and ps, pb, ac, needs headliner replaced and seats redone. I don't know how good it runs and he's asking 20k.
I'm not looking to buy at this time, I have a lot going on with the wife at this time. I told the same thing to the guy who has the dart. But I thank you for letting me know about your car.Got a nice factory 383/4 speed body 99 percent rust free beautiful paint does have tubs but not butchered.

Got a few and need to let one or two go. The Dart was going to get a Hemi. Also have the body, a 500ci Hemi Motor, Hemi K-frame, original Hooker headers, etc for the car. Got most of the stuff to put the stock rear inner wheel housings back in. New AMD stuff. I really wanted to do this car but age is getting in the way and just need to let something go. This is truly a beautiful car.I'm not looking to buy at this time, I have a lot going on with the wife at this time. I told the same thing to the guy who has the dart.
