The car is for sale, obviously, if I am putting it up for auction. Since it is a bidding process, the price will be established by the highest bidder. I have a minimum ("reserve") price in mind, and that will come out at the auction. I have found that sellers do not advertise that reserve in advance, for varying reasons. The bottom line is that the car is worth what someone is willing to pay.
My reason for posting it in the classifieds is to advertise it to people who are most likely to be interested, not only because they might want to make an offer, but many readers here are intensely interested in what these cars are worth and if there is an upward trend. All you have to do is read the postings directing us to "GT/CS For Sale" ads, and the tremendous response that was generated by the BJ auction last year. I believe that the $53,000 the Seafoam CS sold for was an anomally (sic?), and I don't expect that for my car. Someone just has to want it more than I do. I will report back what the highest bid was and if it sold. A number of people have written to ask what I would sell it to them for, circumventing the auction, but I am obligated to the auction company until two weeks after it is over, by contract.
I added a couple more photos of engine compartment.
