GT66K_old · October 26, 2009 at 12:03 PM

I'm trying to come up with a good price for my 66 GT Coupe.

Its an all original CA BLK plate that is basically un-restored.

Its numbers matching Factory GT.

The engine compartment has been 'cleaned and painted- stock colors

Carb was d rebuilt by Pony Carbs.

Its a Tahoe Turquoise with Aqua/white pony int.w/ Blk vinyl top

original AM with Ford "Studio Sonic" (reverb)

Its got 133k original mi and still runs strong. I did put petronic in it .

I have all the original parts that were serviced or replaced.

I just am trying to figure what the market might be for this car.I'm the 4th owner and I have complete history.

Some may remember me and the car from the 40th Show in Nashville.

Thanks for any insights and info and tips about selling.

I think the reason nobody has responded is because with the current economy there are more sellers than buyers and the market for regualr "driver" Kars is really a mystery at this time. The only K's getting good money and selling are the totally restored ones. Those buyers aren't effected by the economy as much, have more extra money for toys, and usually don't buy a collectable car unless it's totally original & restored.

The regular Koupes and non-original other Kars aren't getting what they previously were a few years ago. The potential buyers for "regular" Kars are fewer, because the economy has affected them more adversly.

All that said, I would think that your Kar's value is in the $10k-$15k range. Maybe more, but without pic's it's hard to say, that's just a ballpark. The best way to get a feel for things is to check markets like E-Bay, and the various seller publications for classic cars. That will give you something to compare to as far as what cars are selling for vs. their condition & originality. Post some pic's here and you will probably get more of a response. Hope this helps.

In May, I paid $19k for an unrestored 65 coupe, numbers matching engine & transmission, with correct date coded rear and steering box. The interior is decent but not perfect by any means. I thought it was a fair price and am happy.<img src=images/icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

Thank-you all.

I'll try to get some pics up.

and do some "looking about"

There is really nothing about the car that is an issue.It is much better then a "driver" and is complete in every way.

Its solid and all matching numbers.

I remember when an "un-restored" complete car was better then a restored one....Thanks again everybody. Pics soon.
