What's My Car Worth...Let's Play
The Barrett Jackson Auction is coming up here in Palm Beach. I was looking through the docket and did not have to go far and found this and thought we could play a little game.
Lot #13 1983 CHEVROLET CAMARO Z/28 This Z/28 has 75,600 original miles (the title reads mileage exempt).
So as the title says and the show goes what do you think it will hammer down for? Closest to wins! You have to include collectible and condition with hammer price..At the bottom of the pics I will include the link to the car if you want to inspect it and get the seller's description.

I hope I posted this in the right section

Re: What's My Car Worth...Let's Play
I'm gonna say $7,800 after buyers fees. A year ago there were two 82-84 Z28's with really low miles that brought big money at Barrett Jackson...but neither were Crossfire cars. This car has 2 big down falls with the engine and the miles

Re: What's My Car Worth...Let's Play
I will go with condition 3
Collectability D...Well it is a 3rd gen
$8300 I think there will be a few buyers in the room looking for deals, (this car goes early on Thurs) that the price might get driven up a bit from some of these guys looking to get in on a 3rd gen Camaro.

How about this one from the same Barrett Jackson auction page? Low miles and TPI.
Lot #337.1 - This unrestored IROC-Z is a one-owner Texas car in Bright Blue Metallic with its original interior, power bucket seats, T-Top roof panels with bags, power windows, trunk release and rear cargo cover. It is powered by a 5.0-liter TPI engine backed by an automatic overdrive transmission. This original IROC-Z still sits on its original Gatorback tires and has 6,460 original miles. This one-owner car comes with its original owner’s manuals and delivery inspection, IROC brochure and Camaro brochure.

If the undercarriage is in the same relative condition as that engine bay, IMO, nobody is going to want to buy that car unless the owner wants to give it away for a song. I'm actually kind of surprised BJ would accept a car for auction in such condition.

That said, if everything's kosher, I'll say somewhere between $12,000 and 16,000.

Yep I think the Iroc will bring 20-25K because of the recent Iroc craze. It appears to be a real stunner! Great car.

Me too. That is why I posted this car.I thought why would you even bother running this across the block. Most of the cars look more like the blue IROC but I guess even BJ wants a few "bargins" in their docket.

Re: What's My Car Worth...Let's Play
For the Blue IROC I will go with $19,500 I don't think it will break 20K
The collectability of this one is definitely more like a 2 and a condition being a A
This looks to be another early block crosser, first day. I don't think there will be that bidding war over this car which is usually what drive up the auction cost. I could be wrong but this is my feeling. It is all about the buyers in the room and usually Friday is your bargain hunter day. If they move this car to Fri or Sat than maybe 22K
The Blue IROC is a really nice car and hopefully goes to s good home and not a flipper.

Re: What's My Car Worth...Let's Play
We have a winner! DynoDave bid $5500 and car just sold for a whooping $4400
I should be out there tomorrow when the blue IROC goes across. I will take a close look at this car. Hopefully I can see it in the staging lane before it goes in.

Wow...even with the crossfire, I figured it'd bring more than that. Those engines kill everything. Take an 84 vette for example......you about can't give them away.....

Re: What's My Car Worth...Let's Play
May have had issues that weren't apparent due to the lack of photos (undercarriage rust etc). Crossfire wouldn't scare me away, assuming the rest of it was in great condition. But, I don't care about retaining original engines either.

Re: What's My Car Worth...Let's Play
And I was starting to feel bad because I put such a low number on it compared to others. And I ended up $1100 high!
Just not the right venue to pedal a well used car like that. People are there with money to buy something really nice. Cars with issues struggle to get any attention at all.
A quick buff and it will be on a used car lot somewhere to $9995.00.

Re: What's My Car Worth...Let's Play
I will see if I can locate this car today, give it a good look over. They don't park them in any particular order. I think after the car goes across the block it goes back to the tent where it was originally parked. I think you can't pick up your car until after the entire auction.

I think $4400 was probably a good deal. Put a fpr and a nice 350 in there and you would be in business.

Re: What's My Car Worth...Let's Play
You are right on! I found this car in the back lot and take out the crossfire and this was a really nice car! I looked underneath and looked normal 30+ years. The interior was in really nice shape, seats carpet, dash, even the repaint looked good. I think the buyer did really well with this car and hopefully another early Z going to a good home.

Re: What's My Car Worth...Let's Play
So this guy buys the car in Kissimee FL in Jan. Transports it about 150 mi. south to WPB and sells it 3 months later for 10K more. Take out about 4K in fees and transport and not a bad profit.
My question,... is it the auction, the location or just the right car that made this happen? it sure s not the time!

I'll let one of you from below the Mason-Dixon line comment on the timing, but I think no matter where you are, it's spring. Auctions are happening. Shows are happening. Enthusiasm is up. Perhaps his timing was good.
Could be the auction house too...some draw more bidders, are more high profile, advertise better.

Re: What's My Car Worth...Let's Play
Yes you were! good guess,
Yesterday was a good day for third gens @ the auction. I saw 4 go across the block. the blue Z, a pace car TTA, a 88" twin turbo IROC and a 89 convertible.
Here are some pics of the TTA. I assume the miles got this price, I thought these would be worth more than the Z

Re: What's My Car Worth...Let's Play
I guess we'll never know for sure Vinny. I'd say the flipper has a good eye...a great looking car that was going for just "good" money at the previous auction. So kudos to him for knowing the market, and knowing a good car and a good deal when he/she sees one.

That TTA would be perfect for me. Still low mile enough to be in nice shape and not a resto money pit, but enough miles that I would not feel bad about adding a few more.

As always, "Caveat Emptor"---along with leaving one's emotions out of the buying/bidding equation There are any number of horror stories to be found on the interwebz from auction buyers who later found out they got skinned.

Re: What's My Car Worth...Let's Play
Ray - the fees depend on the volume of business he does with the auction house, it can vary a lot
depending on what kind of deal he gets. Some guys get a good deal from the auction house
because they do a lot of buying/selling with them

Re: What's My Car Worth...Let's Play
so if we say it cost him 300 at the kissimmee auction to buy the car for 16k and it cost him 3200 to sell it for 24,500 then he cleared 5000.00

Re: What's My Car Worth...Let's Play
I sold one a few years back at Mecum and they knocked my sellers fees down to $900 to make the deal fly.
Lots of deal making happens behind the scenes

Re: What's My Car Worth...Let's Play
It looks like the resto mod market is alive and well for third gens also. I was able to speak with the builder of these cars who was selling them for the owners. for this 1988 vert he said he had about 45K in it. The paint job was stunning and the build quality top notch. Nice collection of parts and take out that hockey stripe (my opinion) and you have a great driver that rides and drives fantastic.
Here is my take, There is something for everyone in a third gen right now.The red Twin turbo was the top seller of the third gens 51K The all original blue Z and this resto vert basically sold for the same price. A really nice mostly original TTA went for just under these 2 cars. Then you have the 84 Z that was a GREAT entry car for 4K

Here is the red 89 IROC twin turbo beast. This thing is over the top! Kindig, Foose quality! Engine, engine bay, underneath, interior and that red paint! Nothing on this car was not touched it is a complete resto build. The builder told me he had about 90K in this one and I talked to him before it went across and he knew he would not get it back.The car hammered at 51K. IMHO this was a great buy. I think the parts alone would cost this much! This car is the is the best built 3rd gen I have seen in person to this date. Truly awesome build!
