Hey Todd,
Sorry you've decided to sell, but everything has it's time.
Just some personal observations.
Silver auctions don't have a very good reputation for presenting quality cars. That's unfortunate for the few that do end up going through, but that reputation keeps the serious $ buyers away.
As for Park Place, Rich's experience not withstanding, I haven't been impressed there either. When I was looking for a Cobra I was pretty much ignored there. The one sales guy that decided to talk to me must be psychic. I obviously didn't fit the profile of a serious car buying nut, as he never followed up with me.
Despite our enthusiasm for these cars, they are a limited interest vehicle. The dream of building one "cheap" undermines realistic sales prices (we've all had the opportunity to talk to several guys who've penciled out every detail of building one for 20 thou or so!). Scott's experience with Cobra Country is probably as good as any. There you have an interest focused buying group. I think the suggestion of several outlets is a good one. The more exposure you give yourself (I mean the car
) the better your odds. While some don't think ebay is a good venue, it does attract the worst of the dreamer element, it is still good exposure and could lead to some serious off line negotiation.
The best opportunities though are at swap meets and car shows. The buyer gets to see the car first hand, the lust factor is at it's highest, and no amount of pictures is a substitute for see, touch, smell and drive. It can become a lot like work, but to maximize your sales price, that's what works. And yes, lose the nitrous. It yells "I'VE BEEN FLOGGED".
Sell the nitrous to Fred, he's nearing the age when he needs more supplements in his diet
.
Good luck.
