Give us a bit more information besides just the mods.

Mileage?
Condition?
Horsepower?
Known issues?

 

The overall condition of the car is good. The paint is average for origional paint - no body work. The car has 111,000 on the body but the engine is fresh - only four seasons - and is very sound. The estimated horsepower with mods is around 360 - 375. The interior is very nice with new seats, origional carpet, and operational instruments. With suspension modifications, brakes, and engine mods, this car has held its own against much faster Corvettes at the track.

You have a nice car with a lot of mods. Unfortunately, unless you find a person who is interested in racing and wants what you have done, you may find that a stock 89 would be easier to sell than a modded one. Quite often, cars that have been raced are beaten and can be on their last legs and buyers are wary of this. Good luck and hope you get a good price. Willie

 

You might get more out of it selling the mods than can be removed and selling them separately. You almost never get your money back on those selling them with the car. That's a nice looking '89 though, good luck!

 

Post in the Road Racing and Autocross forum and see if there is anyone looking for a C4 to play with. Since the AC is removed you may have a hard time selling it for someones daily driver

Don't be disappointed with low offers. Unfortunately its worth more then you will get at this point in time. There are many track prepared C5s and C6s on the market now as well.
