Default Pricing help...

Hi all. I am thinking of selling my 356, and would like some input on how I should price it.
The car has some bondo on the rear. Right longitudinal will need attention sooner or later. The right door has good amount of bondo, and will need attention at some point in the near future.
Mechanically the car is sound. Recently the following were replaced: all brakes, rotors, brake lines, calipers. The car drives well. Interior is in good shape.

Thank in advance for your input. Below are some pics of the car...

Hi,
Kinda tough to pinpoint this one, but I'd say around 15,000. Maybe less. If all the issues that you mentioned were fixed properly by a 356 shop or a very good diy'er, the car could sell for twice as much. But then you have to ask yourself....spend 10 or 12 grand to fix everything and then sell it for mid 20s....what's the point? It looks like a fairly clean car, but with rust/bondo problems, especially in the longitudinals, you might not have alot of people willing to go for it.
Good Luck,
Robert

Hi...one more time I'll have to second Robert's guess regarding $$$...I'd ask $15$ as well...the worst part is the rear left side...or maybe it's just the picture...is the hood kinked ? Do you have a matching numbers car?

Regards...

It's a good idea to offer at the 356Talklist...if you are not registered, just go to www.356registry.org and sign up to the talklist...you don't have to be a registry member to do so...
PS. My wife just passed by and said...wow...this car looks great!
Regards...
