Sale Pending Mondial T project

Hi all

I realize these posts are always kind of 'soft classifieds' so let me upgrade my account...

I'm ready to move on from my Mondial T after 19 years, and could use some advice on how to proceed. I really don't enjoy the process of selling cars! I have a running and driving 89 Mondial T, with an older repaint in black. Interior has redone seats in black and tan alcantara, but other areas could use attention. Major done in 2016 and 2019, so it is up to date, but coming due soon. Electrics work enough to pass Texas inspection, but need some looking into, as HVAC is out and back windows are s-l-o-w.

Any advice on how to sell? I'm thinking about submitting to Bring A Trailer but am wary of selling it off to someone who doesn't know what they're getting into (like myself 19 years ago )

Classified ad here would get me a savvy buyer, but how to price it?

Anybody have thoughts?
Thanks
Sam

 

Thanks all. It's a cabrio.

I think you may be right, BaT with no reserve and a lot of transparency may be the best route.
Ease of transaction is at least as important as getting top dollar for me but of course, I'd like to get a reasonable amount for it.
I had a car on BaT a few years ago, and that was fairly easy

 

Well, as 2cam mentions, BHCC is kind of the floor for a range. 40's would be pretty cheeky of an ask, so I'm thinking 30's. I do have some bonus items like B-pillars and fusebox PCB new in the box.

I'm watching at the car greatscott73 mentioned on C&B as a comp, it's at $35K, that may be about right

 

Huh, this is turning into a classified Hopefully that is allowed.
I'm coming to the conclusion the $35K is a reasonable Buy It Now price, where I'm leaving some on the table for the buyer without losing my shirt. Open to opinions on that, however.

The car is in Texas Hill Country (between San Antonio and Austin) if anyone wants an in-person look.

I had the seats redone by GTS Classics. Normally I'm a 'keep it stock' guy, but this car's seats had already been redone once in black, so I took a little leeway. GTS suggested the tan to break up the interior more, so it was done in black leather with tan alcantara inserts and tan stitching. I can get a better picture. I still have a bunch of the tan alcantara to do a few more panels if needed.

I'm not an expert on this forum, but I think you can click my name or avatar and then click "start a conversation" if you want to send a private message.

Thanks

 

As I mentioned, these had already been previously redone, so I figured I wasn't hurting originality. The straps under the foam (I think that's how it works) had failed, making them very hard to sit in. GTS completely disassembled them, fixed them, cleaned them up, and recovered them.

Calling it a project to manage expectations, but it is running and rust-free
Odometer is around 67K now, 2019 belts done at 66K. If I recall, the previous owner replaced the odometer, so TMU.
Yeah, I know, red flag - I was much younger and wanted a Ferrari

 

$35K OBO
Sorry about this mess of a "classified" - I was originally posting in the Mondial subforum, trying to figure out how to price this fairly. Mods moved it here.

 

Bump - $32K OBO

Apologies to those that messaged me last month - I did not have it set to email me for new messages, didn't mean to ignore anyone!

 

Sale pending - thanks all!

 

Car is sold, I have a feeling that this thread won't be the last time you see it on F-chat
