Question Can anyone help me with pricing?

I am looking at selling my 1970 mach 1 Fast back. 351c 4v. it's been sitting for a while but and a tornado has damaged it a little. But the engine, transmission, ignition system, and frame are good. the back window cover was taken off and bent up real bad in the tornado but I do still have it. But I'm just trying to get an idea. I'd like to ask $10-12k. I could get it running if that would help. And most work is in the interior and the fly wheel. Any ideas?

You really need to add a ton of info to get an idea, the VIN, options , rust info and about 10 pictures at a minimum and a few of those need to be of the cars bottom, while its up on a lift.

To get real info you could pay for an appraisal or at least take it to a mustang club and get opinions.

I agree, you cant ask a question like this without any pictures. What you might think is minimal damage might be a lot to somebody else. A car in your area might sell for a different amount then another area.

Agree need pics. 12k sounds steep though. I bought a 70 m code a couple years back from a local driver quality, new paint, qtrs, floorsm seat covers and panels $12,500. I would not spend more than $8k on non running mach1 with damage - even if everything was solid.

based on the description I would say between 2,000 and 3,500. Im imagining a car with a nice crease right down the center of it that caused the backglass to explode out the rear for 10ft....but it has good frame and ignition system still.

I could be off...as others said pics are important here.

Thats a really low estimate, the engine and trans are near worth that alone if not all of the low end.

For $2-3.5k I would expect someone to only be inerested in parts from it, not fixing it and putting it back on the road.
