What's up CaFords so I've been considering selling my 2000 gt convertible since it had a rod knock and I don't really want to rebuild my motor, the car has full exhaust,373 gears, eibach lowering springs,tokico shocks and struts,kicker door speakers and 12 inch sub with a jl amp,saleens front and rear bumpers,18 inch saleens replicas, Hurst short shifter,cipher racing seats, brand new king cobra clutch, steeda clutch quadrant with five firewall adjuster and adjustable clutch cable,bbk cold air intake and accufab 75 mm throttle body, car has about 102k miles and runs fine except that it has a rod knock, interior is about 8/10 and exterior or 9/10, around how much would any of you pay for a car like this, or how much do you guys think I can get for it, just trying to get an idea of how to price it if I do end up deciding to sell the car, thanks cafords

clean looking car but with a rod knock, I'm not sure if you can get too much for it??? I'd pay $1500 for it. Have you tough about parting it out? You probably get more

I did the exact same thing...I was gonna sell mines but got motivated not to put a stock engine and get it done right. Some headaches and money and some time later but worth it in the engine.
