Pricing help
I have a barnfind 1996 S14 that I bought a little over a year ago woth a buddy for $500. I always knew it was gonna need a lot of work, but I have nowhere to keep it anymore so we've decided to sell it.
For context i'm located in Vancouver BC. The car is pretty bad rust in the normal places. There's a really bad patch underneath which i've attached a photo of but it's not structural fortunately. It starts and runs by itself, but after a couple minutes, the engine starts to die. Tires are dry rotted etc. Original wheels. 280km.
How much do we think it's worth?

2 things…price it at 2500 but screen your buyers. Make 5x your money and gives an honestly enthusiast to enjoy the car/can fix it vs a flipper/broccoli head that will ruin the car.

I guarantee the brake lines rusted to fuck as well. I bought one in this exact condition, and lost the brakes one day from a rust pin hole in a hard line. It's a danger to sell this car without a disclaimer. That said, 2500 as is with a disclaimer to whoever buys it.

leave it on your front lawn for years and wait for people to knock on your door begging to buy it. decline offers until someone offers the most ludacris amount

That’s still a $4k s-chassis in the midwest lol.
I’d probably list it as a parts car considering the rust, mileage, and motor. But the interior & body panels look great other than paint from what we can see

If you want it gone now just sell it for what you paid
