Just as the title says it I'm not quite sure if I'm posting this in the right section!

It's an amazing running condition and has the original paint. Interior is almost perfect. Of course we all know that the paint on these things are crap from factory and it's got the spider cracks at 5 feet and closer. Pretty much every upgrade to make reliable has been installed. Hot wire kit, 255 Walbro, fpr, new brake booster and brakes, 100# springs, Kirban upgraded turbo, bigger injectors, chip, body reinforcements behind the seat, and I would have to look to see What else it had. It has just been collecting dust for the last couple years and I think it's just time to let it go. Always started up and always used additive in both The fuel and the oil. Runs like a top! The only real thing this needs is a first-class paint job!

I went to Hagerty and it gave me a couple different valuations and I would say this is between a level 3 and level 4 due to the paint. Any ideas or anybody that might be interested? ;)

Thanks
 
My fairly UNeducated guess would be around 10-12k if the paint is pretty half way decent. How about posting some pics and the RPO.
 
Between 6000 and 12000 if a clean title. The cost to paint one of them properly is likely about what it's worth but won't add that value to the car. You can wait it out and find a less than 20000 mile one for what it costs to create a nice higher mile car
 
Go high on value
Easyer to find a gn they made 20k of
Then a we4 they made 1547 of
Sold mine off for 16k
With 143k on it

Probably if you go to sell it your looking around $9k and that's with no rust.
 
Related question, do roof styles really alter the value of a gn much? Is the more popular t-top worth more than the rarer hardtop or cf5? I know an 86 cf5 is rare but to collectors is it worth more than others? I only ask because I just purchased a cf5 from 1986
 
hard to say been trying to sell a 77k WE4 myself that's excellent. cant get it sold at 12k about to sell the driveline and make a radial car out of it fuck it.
 
16k? Wow. Your Car looked clean! Here are some pics. I need to detail and get some "glamour" shots up. Haha. Paint is decent but definitely needs a repaint for show quality.

Should be worth $12k if it's as clean as it looks. Maybe a little more. Unfortunately, it will probably not bring that.
A good paint job will set you back close to $10k! (No one will pay you $22k.)

I have a spotless 73k mile 86 ttype (1 of 1921) with new paint and people balk at $18k... (worth every penny IMO) Not sure if the WE4 option is that much more desirable or not.

Sadly, too many people are giving their cars away and keeping the market so low where folks like GN4u2C are stuck with a nice car that even a bargain basement price won't move it.
