Default How do you find the market value of an OLD car? (Kelly Blue Book is not the answer)

I have an '87 5.0 convertible I want to sell but KBB doesn't rate cars built before 1990. How do you find the value of a car built before that year?

KBB does not even matter for these cars. Theres a high demand for these cars so most people usually get want they want. Especially if they have low mileage or someone put alot of work into it.

they are in high demand but also high supply. unless the car has a lot of go fast parts in it, i would plan on selling for $2000-$5000 depending on where you live and what the condition of the car is. you dont give any pics or info on the car so i can only guess

Pictures can be found at the 2 links below. The car has approximately 135,000 miles on it.

check out ebay, look at Fox mustangs that are close to yours, and see what they are going for....
