the problem is that when ppl are looking at buying a new car..they don't tend to go for the one that loks like shit.. they want it looking great and they'll be excited to drive it..

Unfortunately i think the only interest you will get on your car is those that can't afford price or looking for a cheap car to build up.. Which limits your buyer diversity and lowers the limit.. fix it up or sell it for a steal.. 6-7k would be my starting point..

i'm with gimps. i think round the 6-7k mark is all most people would look at paying for a car with panel damage.

[adamskill]

i recently sold my 32 gtst, it was is perfect condition, and i mean that. it was absolutely MINT. i thought $10k was the minimum i would get for it, but after 2 months of trying to sell it, and i needed to desperately as i was moving over seas, i sold it for $7.5k. i guess what i learnt is that when selling a car thats as niche as a skyline, it doesnt matter what you THINK its worth, its worth what someone will pay for it. and like gimps said, if it doesnt LOOK the goods you will loose interest of alot of people in such a tiny market. in my opinion i think between $6-8k is what your looking at.

[lonleylad]

one big prob ..if the person who may be interested cannot tidy the car up themselves it would turn them away..if they had to spend big dollars at the beaters to straighten the bod ,,it would be far cheaper to buy a clean straight car ..paint work and beating is that much of a ripoff now..so be prepared for some really stupid offers ..if you can get a mate or friend that nows what they are doing get it done first before you advertise ..first impressions are the sellers ..good luck...shame it had to happen to such a gr8 car

[adamskill]

lonleyland is spot on. people want to buy a car, hop in drive away and have nothing to worry about. its like in the for sale section on sau, where countless wankers will advertise their car and talk up how nice it is, and how good condition its in blah blah blah, and then state that it will be sold with NO RWC!? and the reason being is that they 'cant be bothered' or 'dont have the time'. people want peace of mind.

haha f**k that turned into a rant real quick...

[GUN_METAL_GTR32]

have u tried dint doctor bro

just to get all the dints out and then and then a serious hand polish to make it look schmicky

thats what i would try

i think one thing u have to remember is that there are thousands of r33's for sale around the country in far better condition than ur own so u have to try to have a point of difference (which u dont) or be as cleas as f**king possible (which right now u r not) to get rid of it.

or just cut ur losses and sell it for peanuts and start again.

[mad082]

those dent doctors normally charge per dent, so it could add up pretty quickly. i wouldn't be suprised if it ran into the thousands (since there is 40 dents, so even at $20 a dent is going to be $800, but i think they usually charge a hell of a lot more than that).

[GUN_METAL_GTR32]

im sure that for hail damage that they would do some sort of package deal lol

like 10 dents for $xxx u know what i mean

[mad082]

yeah i was wondering the same thing, but from what i have heard they can charge as much as $200 per dent (and as little as $50) so i think that either way it would probably work out to be an expensive exercise.

plus the fact that there is other issues as well

[Peter89]

if you part it out you might get above $7k but it is a lot of work to do that, requires time, skill and lots of tools.

[dan_the_man]

$6k
