Appraise my 1982 280Zx

Just wondering how much you guys think my Z is worth here are the details:
mileage: 83,000 original miles
engine rebuilt at 78k miles all numbers match, all new belts and hoses new starter, new allternator and new clutch kit
its all original except for the louvers which i dont have.
and everything works!
i am the 2nd owner and i have all original manuals and everything for it... i also have the original T-top covers, the car cover...

negatives: missing the cover for my dome light and the master cylinder cap

very clean, i'm gonna bet you can get at least 2k...it all depends on the buyer.. i sold my POS n/a with 180K but because it was shiny I got 2400 for it o.0

Sell it to a non-Z person and you could get probably 2.5-3, maybe even higher than that!! It looks very clean!! I would buy it for....1.6-2K depending on the conditions of the underbelly

Just my opinion...

^^^ What they said.

You've got a very clean Z, but most "Z people" aren't going to pay top dollar for another Z... because we know they can be had for cheap. I've personally bought more than a handful of 280zx's for less than $500. Most were in sorry shape, some very clean.

It's hard to get top dollar in a tough economy, and especially because people aren't searching for an old school sports car right now.

List it here in our MARKETPLACE and on your local classifieds.

I see some people in the NW trying to get $6000 to $8000 for a really clean 280ZX. They NEVER sell.

I was probably the only person with money looking for a clean 280ZX a couple years ago. I found a really clean turbo Z. The owner was asking $3500 but I didn't buy it... then a month later they called me up and dropped the price since I was his only serious inquiry. I got it for $2500. I think my car was a good deal.

Also, if the car really is that clean then those pictures don't do it any justice. Post many large pictures for us to see.
Your location also has an effect on its value. I'd say if you actually want to sell it (and not just brag that you have a supposive $10k Z-car) then you're looking at an asking price of $4000-5500. Good thing its a manual. An automatic or 2+2 would be very hard to sell.
