So everybody agrees that this car, that they are asking 35k for, needs a complete paint job.

No,....the sellers lowered the asking price to $25K and then changed it back to $35K.

Don't freak out yet. Just watch and see what happens.........

Opportunity favors the prepared mind!
 
Even at $25K this is a good value car, the costs associated with changing the things under the hood runs to less than $1K and the repaint to a factory original standard should be no more than $4K to $5K. With that in mind, you could conceivably have a far more original car for about $30K when comparing it to the black one for $29K which also needed work at that price. Yes black is more desirable but in balance shouldn't make a huge difference in price in this instance. Now if the car is being offered for $22K, then it's a no brainer.
 
Just educate me on these wheels quickly...the car for sale here has the right rims and centre caps but is missing the right trim ring?
Does anybody have a picture of just the trim ring without the wheel?
Or is it a trim ring and then an extra filler piece?

I believe you are greatly underpricing a good paint job by a factor of at least 2, and probably 3.

The wheel covers are correct.

One of the guys that had a blue 71 GT sin the registry had sold his car. About three years ago, maybe four he sold off much of his 71 GT stuff. I probably should have jumped on that

I owned a '71 Sport Fury Coupe with these wheels in 1979. It is a large one piece trim ring and the center cap is bolted on from the back. It appears he has the correct wheels which should be different if I remember correctly. He is missing the trim rings.
