Default please appraise vehicle

I am thinking of purchasing this vehicle he is asking 9500. what do you think this car is worth?

here is the breakdown of the car-

Exterior:
Re-painted black (No rust or bondo any where on the car, I have pics from when the car was painted for ducumentaion)
Yellow hood decal
Cobra hood scoop
Saleen rear whale tale spoiler
SVO rear side spats
Billet fuel door
Coverking indoor car cover.

Interior:
All original red cloth in perfect condition, no rips, burns, wear marks
or damage of any kind, Non-smoker vehicle
White face gages
Steeda Tri-Ax short throw shifter
Cobra shift ****
Alpine CD deck w/iPod adapter
Infinity front speakers, Alpine rear speakers, Audiobahn subwoofer
Cobra floor mats
MOMO steering wheel

Suspension and Engine:
Original 5.0L 302cid EFI w/36,400 miles. K&N air filter and Ford racing plug
wires, car is tuned to run on premium gas
BBK ceramic coated shorty headers
BBK H-Pipe w/hi-flow cats
Flowmaster cat-back exhaust
Dugan racing lowering springs
UPR Bump steer kit
Dugan racing caster/camber plates
KYB shocks all around, Monroe quad shocks
Ford racing Cobra R 17" rims
Toyo Proxes tires, 235/40/17 front, 255/40/17 rear (95% of tread left)
Ford racing 3.73 rear gear w/re-calibrated speedometer
'93 Cobra 4 wheel disc brakes, (fronts have stainless steel front brake lines and drilled/slotted rotors) By far the best improvement I made to the car.


Other misc. info

T-Tops (do not leak and all seals in great shape)

Manual locks

Manual windows

Cruise control (disconnected for the Momo wheel) but all components are in place

Fog lights are in tact and look perfect but they do not work. Electrical issue somewhere.

Car has A/C but it needs to be converted to R-134A and charged, but all components seem to work.

Heater core was replaced in 7/08. No antifreeze leaked in the car, I noticed a small leak on the engine side of the fire wall and replaced the core before it had a chance to blow.

Always stored in doors, never driven in the winter nor do I drive it in the rain

There are no squeeks or rattles of any kind

Car starts and runs flawlessly

I still have some of the original parts, ie, steering wheel, rear spoiler, rear end gears w/axels, black fog lamp covers.

Lots of paperwork and receipts

now here is a pic

Way too much $$$ as far as I'm concerned! '86 302 not too good IMO! ...I see the car has a lot on it AND does look good!...maybe $5,500-$6,000 tops!

He is out of his mind if he is asking 9500$. I would say thats worth 5k max. It doesnt even have a grey interior!

Me thinks this guy is out of his freakin mind, lol Not only does he have a false sence of what the car is worth but he must be color blind. He painted yellow on a Black car that has red interior. That Saleen 80's whale tail spoiler and yellow headlights only reinforces his bad taste. I wouldn't give him 3500 for it. I'm not a hater of the porno red interior as most people are but to accent the outside with yellow leads me to beleive this cat is wearing one red sock and one green sock. I'd be doubting that this car only had 3X,XXX miles on it as well.

i would like to see the documentation on 36,xxx miles i bet its more like 136,xxx. it does look like it has been well maintained though. that hood scoop is just an 82 gt hood scoop. also thats not porno red interior its canyon red its much darker than the porno red and actually looks good...i have it in my car. the yellow on back doesnt look bad but he has the red interior so that just doesnt work. the euro yellow head lights are ugly as hell. but all and all i would give him 6k max

It's clean but I'd go 4000 if he took that Plastic fireplace mantle off the rear, lol

Bottom line it's worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it. Unless someone is really digging that car he'll own it for a while. It is a clean 4 eye though. Just not my cup of tea. I wouldn't pay that much if was solid color.
