Hey i would like some imput as to whether i'm asking to much for my car. Thanks i would like to know what you might think it is worth...
 
Based on the limited info in the ad I would say the car will sell between $20-25K.

This is certainly not ALL of it but here are some tips for you. People want to know these things.
1. Is it all rust free original sheet metal, if not how was it repaired and when?
2. What is the condition of the trim?
3. Is it the original engine and trans? If so, what are the numbers?
4. What rear end ratio and is it Sure Grip?
5. Do you have the original fender tag, broadcast sheet and IBM card?
6. You say no shipping offered? Wrong statement to advertise a car nationwide on the
Internet. You have to be willing to offer help with having the car available for a
transporter. Buyers expect to pay the shipping but the way you serve it up is very
negative.

I sell a pre-purchase checklist for people that want to try and buy a car long distance. It is some thing that serves the seller as well when preparing to sell a car that the will advertise nationally. Many people buy cars like this without their own personal inspection and have them shipped, but to put their minds at ease you have to have ALL of the info available to them when they ask as well as many detailed close up pictures. You should also have the car put up on a hoist and take a lot of pictures of the under side of the car noting the rust prone areas.

Here is the web address for the pre-purchase checklist. http://www.sedonarental.com/classic_car/classic_car_homepage.htm
You are asking the price of a low #1 or high #2 car. From the description of an untouched high performance engine with 129K miles, the car falls in the #3-2 condition. This is based on the following catagory definitions.
#1 EXCELLENT: A close to perfect original or very well restored vehicle. Generally a body-off restoration, but a well done body-on restoration that has been fully detailed may qualify. The vehicle is stunning to look at and any flaws are trivial and not readily apparent. Everything works as new. All equipment is original, NOS, or excellent quality reproductions.
#2 VERY GOOD: An extremely presentable vehicle showing minimal wear,or a well restored vehicle. Runs and drives smooth and tight. Needs no mechanical or cosmetic work. All areas (chassis not required) have been detailed. Beautiful to look at but clearly below a #1 vehicle.
#3 GOOD: Presentable inside and out with some signs of wear. Not detailed but very clean. Body should be straight and solid with no rust through anywhere. Shiny, attractive paint but may have evidence of minor fading or checking or other imperfection. Runs and drives well. May need some minor mechanical or cosmetic work but is fully usable and enjoyable as is.
#4 FAIR: Runs and drives OK but needs work throughout the vehicle. Body shows signs of wear or previous restoration work. Any rust should be minimal and not in any structural areas. Cosmetics, body, and mechanics all need work in some degree.
#5 POOR: In need of a complete restoration, but is complete and not a rust bucket beyond repair. May or may not run and drive.
 
Thanks for the reply i'm new to selling like this i have alot to learn. The car has never been wrecked or damaged all sheet metal is original. According to your list my car is in number 3 condition. showing some slight imperfections there is one ding on the left top quarter panel behind the door where my dart hood feel against it last summer. There is a few bubbles on both bottom quarters on each side of the car. Here's the story with the engine the car was bought new by a man name james perry he was a mecanic that work with jake king who built engines for ronnie sox in the 60 and 70's. Well james bought the car new in 1967 he blew the engine in a few mounths so chrysler put in a new engine under the warranty well a few mounths donw the road he blew the second engine it was still under warranty so he called chrysler and ask them to send in a new engine disasembled and he would put it together him self and they said ok but there will be no more warranty on the engine. James built the engine him self and it still runs as good as it did then my brother inlaw new james perry and bought the car from him personally until he sold the car to me. I've owned the car since1993 the only reason i'm selling is i need the money for my wife she has a brain tumour that is stage 4 cancer i really need the money. I do realize this might be a hard story to beleave about the car but that's my brother inlaw has told me every since 1981 when we first met. The trans is not original it went out with him before i bought it and we put one in it out of a 1969 dodge corronet wagon. The rear has a 742 center chunk which i think is correct for 67 it has 294 gears with sure grip i think i have never pulled it out all i do is drive on weekends sometimes..
 
I was just in Raleigh....but it was for things totally unrelated to cars.... (nudge nudge wink wink)
