Should I part the roller? Just feeling it out.

[Cobraman]

Trying to decide wether or not to part the red roller. It's basically stock, but everything is in good shape. seats aren't ripped, interior is decent. I have hypercoated Fr500's on it, 4.56 gears, flow 40's in a magnaflowcb, all the A/C, ps, stuff etc. 102,000miles, clean history, no hail. The paint is alright, But fading as it is laser red.

I was thinking I could get about $1500 for the complete roller.

If I part it:

I Could Sell:

Five lug brake stuff- $?
A/C- about 250
Seats- about 400
Wheels - about 400
Catback- about 150

and I'm sure all the little stuff- Door panels, body panels, rear end, etc. could net me at least another $500. Which would bring more than $1500. But Is it worth it?

I don't know what kind of market there is for this kind of thing. What would you do?

Sell the car.

[91CoupeMike]

Sell it as a whole. Easier to sell, less work, less low balling.

I do plan on selling it at this point. But I feel like I may end up having trouble finding a buyer and not sell it. I figure $1500 would be about as little as I would take for it. Anything under that I can make better money parting it.

Sell the brakes and rear end and then you're left with a car on jackstands.

What are you going to do then? (this is where I'm at now with a 89 GT)

can't remember, is it a cobra or gt, I parted a 98 gt that was a running and driving car, while I did ok on this, it was a pain in the ass. I ended up chunking all the a\c, no one even hit on it. Still have a few misc. pieces sitting around from it.

You'll have more trouble and a longer process to get rid of all the parts. Yes in theory you have the potential to make more money but only over a course of time. So you'll be stuck with holding the parts and soon it'll wear on you having space being consumed by parts with no use to you.

I speak from experience this is exactly the position I'm in right now. I've gotten out of the mustang scene and stuck with literally a garage lined with mustang parts that I don't have any use of.

[shumpertdavid]

being a cobra I'd try to sell as a roller, if you get no serious bites within a couple weeks then post up pricing for the larger parts, brakes, diff, interior, etc and see what kind of interest you have in it.

[barronj]

I would buy a roller cobra quick. Should sell easily at that price.

The only problem is that its not much of a Cobra, other that the snake badges and vin. No 4v ,it has gt brakes, gt air bag. Other than that its a cool car.
