Lol. No idea but you should see some of the bizarre diatribes I’ve received telling me the 2.7 even when rebuilt correctly is still just a paper weight.

Well just me, of course.

No. No No. I almost never bother with stuff that has "Oh you wish" prices on them. You just might be deflecting the buyers you are looking for, the reasonable ones with $. Too high a price and you only get the lookers with opinions to share.

Price it right where you want to be. you don't have to sell it for less. "you and I both know it is a fair price" Do this and you will be able to say that to enough that someone will agree. Get more than one to agree and then it becomes OBO.

"not too many out there" might or might not not be a good thing with regards to color combos.

I agree. There is the pie in the sky, I really don’t want to sell it price. I’ve adjusted my sale price based on a few years of bat data based on condition and what not. I was a bit high out of the gate for sure. The whole point my post was to highlight those buyers that hope to score a deal via insults.

I took all the ads down as I wanted to not lose my mind and feeling of self-worth.

Its like they have a calling for it.

I know what it's like as I endured the same when I sold my 1988 Carrera. Tons of emails asking questions (same questions over and over) and after a while I was losing track with whom I corresponded. I made arrangements with one guy to see the car and he wanted to test drive. I was in the passenger seat and realized immediately that he didn't know how to drive a manual-test drive done.

It took a month or so but I finally got an offer from a fellow from Saskatchewan who flew down with his girl friend and drove it back to Saskatchewan.

Your buyer is out there-just be patient and don't let the low-ballers and tire kickers aggravate you.
