Three grand for a vert? Cant be too far off. If it doesnt sell in a few weeks just lower the price, it will sell...if it doesn't...lower price again.
I think you are in, or really close to the sweet spot. Very Happy

Agreed. Great project for someone with the skills and time to commit to it.

I think your price is fair. My 71 vert was in similar condition when I bought it - yours may even be in a little bit better shape. The owner was asking $3K. We ended up agreeing on $2,300.

Good Luck. It should sell.

Thanks guys. This is my first experience with Ghias. I'm a bus guy. I got a few calls within minutes of placing the ad, so I wanted to make sure I wasn't giving this thing away. Laughing Thanks again for the replies.

I don't know. I think if it doesn't sell, you RAISE the price. Then there will be a mad rush to buy it before you raise it again.Plus it has the added bonus of making mine worth more. Laughing
