Default whats it worth?

quite a common one i know and im sorry if it anoys anyone.ive recently got one of my erst's back on the road had MOT this week and passed.It has a fully rebuilt engine including new pistons,shells,skimmed crank,uprated head gasket,HD head bolts,reconditioned head new tappets etc..Also new clutch,rebuild gearbox,reconned driveshafts,rebuilt standard turbo.mechanically it is a mint car only covering 7 miles too and from test station.all the work has been to standard spec except head bolts and head gasket.body work wise the car is not fantastic.Idealy to become a minter it would need work,but reasonable condition and polished up well.

Now im in a possition where i dont know weather to keep it or sell on and crack on with my other turbo.I was wondering roughly what it is worth i have a few pics on my profile its the red one please if you have the time have a look and let me know what you rekon.cheers for your time.

Bit of a hard one really mate.

The trouble is that bad body work really puts people off, if its got tax and MOT and its not got stupid miles, probably 2500-2800. If the body work is really shabby with no MOT and loads of miles probably nearer the 1800 mark.

Below average but drivable 1200-1500
Average cars 2000
Really clean ones go for 3-3500.
Exceptional cars seem to be going for 4500-5500

This is just based on sold prices from piston heads and ebay over the last year or so. I have seen cars go for as little as £500 and for as much as £6000.

Keep it and sort the body, it will only appreciate.

Rob,
