Maybe asking $1,000? What should I ask for this car?

"Ran when parked. Has many new parts. Newer short block. 3.1 V6 automatic. Has nice newer interior. Grant steering wheel B&M ratchet shifter. New seats. new carpet and headliner. I don't have time to figure out why it won't run. Has sat for a few years. New injectors, timing chain, distributor, fuel pump. Just needs some mechanical work. Had custom flame paint job, clear coat is flaking now. Have put a few thousand into this car. Has some minor dings and paint issues. Can provide pics in a few days.

Make an offer. I'll take cash or maybe a motorcycle or something for a straight trade. Need more room in my garage. "- CL Ad

The seats are from a 94' or '96 Camaro. The interior is solid black from my 89' RS. (this 91' car came with the deluxe interior, but it was cherry red in a maroon car and trashed....ugly.) I replaced the headliner myself at my family's upholstery shop.
I suspect the issue is with the new short block and old sensors the P.O. did. The new engine parts were from me attempting to get it running.

I litterally bought this car running, replaced the interior for a few weeks. Drove it around the block. Parked it, went to DMV to buy plates, came home and it wouldn't start. Hasn't run since. It will chug and backfire then die.
My parents got divorced and are selling the house it sits at. I'm in college and work 45hrs a week. I don't have time to part out all the new parts I've bought. It kills me to dismantle this car anyways, I just don't think I can do it. It's the last thirdgen I have, but I just need to move on. And I hope someone can take my dream and make it run for them.

I accept cash or trade. In Urbana, Illinois. I can not tow. You must pick up.
