Convertible top is slightly warn along the edges; however no cuts or leaks

Re: How much is it worth

I'd say that this is a case where the additions are going to hurt the value of the car more than anything else, especially with it having low original miles as most buyers that want a low mileage car are also looking for it to be completely stock.

Specifically, if those aren't vinyl stripes that can be peeled off, most buyers are going to need to factor in painting the front bumper, which is usually around $400 retail for a proper job. It's definitely a good thing that you have the original hood and wheels though. I'd put the original hood and wheels back on, and paint the front bumper if the stripes don't come off. You should be able to get decent money for that hood in the for sale forums here. I'd also take the racing flag stickers off the fenders, I'd take the windshield banner off, and I would definitely not advertise it with photos of a dog sitting in it.

I'd ask probably $3,500-$4,500 for that car with the stock hood, wheels, and ft bumper. I'm assuming it's all stock under the hood and in the interior, and has cold air conditioning.

I agree with this post almost 100%. If the car is back to 100% stock looking and the top is not bad at all you might get a bit higher than $4500 for it, but not being a v8 is going to hurt resale bad. I know the LO3's are not fast-heck my LB9 is not fast, but I will not buy an F-body that is not a V8 so your car at just about any price would be a no go for me, not saying it's not a nice car, becasue it is-I just don't like the mods on it. Cute dog by the way.

Re: How much is it worth

The car is only worth what someone in your area will pay. We have no idea what it's worth without seeing it, hearing it run, driving it, etc. Look online and see what other similar cars in your area have sold for. That's the best estimate you can really get.
