Thinking of selling 85 Copper Camaro

Based in Chicago... Any thoughts from the group about how much I should ask for this?
https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/memb...9-gapeach.html
Not selling yet, trying to get a feel for whether I should finish it, or sell. Awesome running project... Strong runner, Georgia car, drove it all the way back to Chicago, no problems. Was going to do something cool with orange paint, white seats and chrome irocs, but back, knee and ankle issues keep me from kickin the clutch like I should!~
1985 Z28 Copper/Russet w/ matching interior
Summit Racing GM performance 350
5 speed manual
3.23
Comp clutch

One of about 500. Not rare in the car world, but as 3rd Gens go, I've only every seen another one live. And it wasn't a 5sp.

New:
1500 mi on new 350 engine, 4 Bolt, performance cam
Distributor, wiring, etc.
New Windshield
FloMax exhaust
Radiator, etc.
Shift boot
Dash pad
Shocks, suspension
Hatch shocks
Instrument cluster (have old one too)

Rebuilt/restored:
5 speed trans
Front passenger seat
Interior door panels
Power windows

Plusses:
Garage kept
Very solid floors, birdcage, trunk, shock towers, etc.
Fast. At or near 300hp
Power windows
Power steering
Power locks
Have chrome IROC wheels I may throw in
Gold-finished wheels on the car in great shape
t tops work well when you have the weatherstripping in place.
No bondo or primer. What you see is the real deal.
Heater, defrost, lighter work well
Electrical system on this car has been great
I have the faux hood scoops

Not so great:
Front tires don't match, a little worn too.
Balky downshift into 3rd, otherwise shifts up and down great
Air con disconnected to make more power, less weight, but I think I have most of the equipment.
Slight dings and a slight door dent and small quarterpanel dent
Carpet and interior looks like its pretty old cause it is
Hood has surface rust throughout exterior
Decal striping is worn

Needs, if you care:
Speedo screeches. Needs cable?
rear seatback torn
trunk lock. Latches, doesn't lock.

Re: Thinking of selling 85 Copper Camaro

Price?

Also, which GM crate motor does it have, and how many miles on the chassis?

Hi Jim, Thanks for replying. You've got a nice car BTW... Thinking $6-7K, has not sure, but >150K on the chassis, but much suspension was redone as was everything under the hood. Most everything on the car has about 1000 Miles on it. The guy I bought it from said it was a Summit Goodwrench 350, 4 bolt main with hot cam and I think when I looked it up it was a 295hp model. Has a 650 cfm 4BB. Gets 15-20 mpg.
