So I am having a tough time figuring out what to do...I have a 95 GST that I did a 6 bolt swap to, but Ive had a really tough few months...and have considered selling it. What Im wondering is what would you guys give for the motor and body I have, I need to see if its even worth considering selling for what I have in it, So I'll Give you the list and see what you guys think.

Full 6 Bolt Motor Cyl. head and all
Eagle Rods, Eagle Crank, Crower Springs Valves & Retainers, JE Pistons, Adjustable Cam Gears, Dejon Tool Intake Manifold, Taylor 10mm Plug Wires, New Stage 2 Clutch and Flywheel( Ive forgotten what brand), B&M FPR, Walboro 255 fuel pump, 16G Turbo, Balance shaft elimination kit, all new water and oil pumps new gears the whole works, New BOV, New manual boost controller....its an entirely new motor
I also Have new Sunpro Oil Pres. and Boost gauges installed in the in dash gauge pod, and an extra 2G Head and misc. sensors ive bought.

I have Receipts for all the parts Ive bought and all the work thats been done, in a nice little binder, Ive really put alot into this and if i sold it would want someone who would see it finished to have it, not just gut it for the parts.

The Car itself is a little rough around the edges, Needs a Drivers Seat and a New Front bumper...has headlights from a 98 or 99 in it, and it needs a paint job cause the fenders and hood are red and the rest of the car is white.

I have a few pictures Ones of the front of the car and the motor while I was doing the 6 bolt swap, the other is right before I finished up the swap of the motor in the car, A Picture of the Internals and one of all the parts, and then one of the rear of the car.

I just wonder how much i could get out of it if i sold it.....I just really cant keep it the way things have been going for me. Im sorry for being a little long on the post but this is a really tough one for me and i dont know what i should do.

I hope you don't have to sell it. If you do please shoot me a PM with a price as I have been looking around for a decent one.
 
Personally, if you don't really HAVE to sell it then I wouldnt. Like for example if your just selling it because its giving you a hard time and things just aren't going in the way their supposed to or your having trouble putting the motor back in and your running out of patience, then all I can really say is welcome to the dsm world. Your going to run into set backs and it may take longer than you planned to but you have to stick with it. Its not going to be done without patience. Now if its a financial problem then thats a different story. If you need money then I would consider parting it out. You're going to get more money parting each part out then you are if you sell the car as a whole with all those parts that are still brand new. There is a lot of money invested in just the motor so I would try to sqeeze as much money out of parting out as possible. Hope this helps your decision.
 
Thanks for the input guys, I really am looking to sell it because of financial and personal difficulties...trying to help out family, Ive had the car running twice and tore it back down twice because i wanted to make more power with it, but if i keep it It will be quite sometime before i can put money into it. As for giving a price I just dont know what would you give for something with the stuff I listed? That was the reason i posted to see what i could get out of it.
 
I didnt want to setup a Classified Ad.....Im not trying to sell it, well not yet anyways Im trying to find out if its worth me selling, if it would help me at all, and if it is then I was going to setup a Classified. Anywhere Else?
 
No. Just research other ads and pricing. These type of posts just clog up the tech forums...mods don't like that. And neither do those searching for answers with key words that might be in your posting.

Just keeps everything a lot cleaner.
 
Ah yea I understand completely, I just didnt really know where else to post it besides the Newbie forum, sorry didnt think about it when I posted been a tough few days and the brains kinda cluttered LOL, know anyone who could delete the thread for me?
