Looking to sell my 1979 Chrysler 300. Looking for advice from some experts on a starting point for its price. All original car. Runs well, title in my name. Little rust around the rear wheel wells and back lip of the trunk trunk lid. Have replaced the gas tank, sending unit, fuel pump, fuel filter. Added an edelbrock carb. Have the original holley. Have the original wheels. Interior is in good shape. No rips in the seats or carpet. 360 motor, power windows, and power sunroof. Going to sell with the factory wheels. Replaced the upper and lower bearings in the tilt column. I was thinking the 5500 range for the car. Thanks for your thoughts in advance.

IMO, the sunroof option offsets the negative of rust around the wheel wells.
How many miles does the car have on it?
Do you have the Broadcast Sheet? It will typically be under the rear seat; between the springs and foam.
An interior in good shape is somewhat unusual.
Does it have power door locks and power trunk deck lid release?
What other options does it have? Front cornering lights? Do you have the fender tag?
You can get reproduction 300 taillight emblems from an eBay seller. They are not expensive. The car will more complete and presentable with them.
I don't see the high capacity alternator under the hood. Therefore, your car doesn't have a rear window defroster.
Is the air conditioning in working order?
I don't see your heater hoses.
What condition is the exhaust system?
Yeah, what's with trunk lids on '79 300's? They look like mine or yours or worse except for the handful of garage queens out there.
The '79 Chrysler 300, no matter the condition and price, stay on the market a long time.

I think you're in the ballpark with your price since it is a sunroof car and the couple of pictures you posted looks like the car is ok.
