I think its worth 12k. but throwing it out there for a quick flip... maybe. it also has make a offer. so anyone can really offer anything. I may take less if it sits around, and I stay busy with other stuff. or maybe build it, if things get slow. nice weather now , here. Good working weather.

Has make a offer.. ???
Someone reported it as not a car, and ebay removed my ad...
Here is the new ad.

I guess it's not really are car, since it only has lien paperwork, and doesn't have a title. but at least i can run the ad for a nickle ... good till cancelled.. forevever. or til i get to it maybe.. doubtful. lol
Did it sell?

No. He had to resist it because someone reported it wasn't a whole car.
Now someone is saying it's not cmc.. usually dealers that have cars listed pull this crap. unethical bs. i bet he tries to get this ad booted too.. wtf. i'll look for some Porsche shows / car shows to bring it too. must be some in florida.
It's definitely a CMC - I remember those boxes and the way the tonneau/top was wrapped. CMC's were built/sold just down the road from in in Miami. Not sure why anyone's business would feel threaten by an old kit uncovered and offered for sale. Print off cover page of build manual, ad photo of it and say copy of build manual included. A quick wash and wax job (I bet a detailer would do for less than $100) would make for better pictures. If you could figure how to get it title that would increase value a grand. I'd take all the negative and speculation out of the add -- and the all caps. It's not an old engine or trans - it's vintage.. Why not put on THESAMBA (free) and although a pain - local Craigslist (take cash only)? It might sell at a VW show - but you'd have to load up and haul it there.
I'm 100% sure it's a CMC. List it on thesamba. It will sell.

Will try that place. Will get it up on CL. but i don't do well on there. Maybe buff it first.. lay out parts better. I try not to spend much time til i know it's worth the effort. sounds like i'm in the ball park for price.. so will try and make that happen this week.
Thanks folks .. you guys are a huge help.
CMC with out a doubt
You know what? Do a search on CL for Speedster. Here in CA there are always 3 or 4 ads for people looking for Speedster projects. You can use search tempest to crawl all CLs in your area.
Also... the samba.com/vw
There is a section for vw based kit cars.
Good luck.
thanks. just found a list of car shows w/ car corals too... will get it to some soon. going to clean it up this week.. get a more accurate list of parts.. list is only most of it. then push hard to sell it. seems my time is best spent on this.. not many items i have, can make this much on a flip..so fast.
If it's priced right it will sell
Over price it and it will sit...
Dam.. big vw show this weekend.. i'm going to miss it.. Bug jam
Car is sold folks. thanks for everyones help. I learned alot. I just dont have the time to do the project, or have the motivation. thanks again.
