Default Approx value?
I'm considering putting my '78 Pacer on the block. paint=fair, 2 yr old interior. Custom JVC chameleon cd stereo with amplifier. Auto trans. A\C disconected due to frozen compressor. Motor stripped of all emissions stuff, stainless headers, otherwise stock L-82. Runs and pulls hard.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Mike

Mileage? BIG factor with Pace Car prices.

Originality is a factor with PCs. Do you have the parts you took off the car?

Hate to say but here's good example of how "mods" undermine value. Probably the most collectible Corvette since 72 but this one will come in much less due to modifications. Original parts will help

Hope I'm proven wrong.
