Capris have sky-rocketed in value over the last few years. I bought my GT V6 nearly 6 years ago for $3700 and Shannons valued it for $10,000 late last year and I haven't done much to it in that time.
Generally, 4 cylinders sell for a bit less. A good quality 1600 GT should get $6000-8000. Whereas a V4, because of its rarity, should nudge $10,000 for a Capri collector. You've got to be weary of buyers, though. The V4 came with a few nice bits, like the low ratio atlas diff and a bell-housing that allows V6 owners to bolt on a direct-shift 4 or 5-speed....So, you'd need to keep the price relatively high to stop the thing from being pillaged of its bits. Picks would be nice..... |

lol, sorry to disapoint but we only just sold our v4gt. and yes, it was a waist of time selling it. i will put it that way.
we got a lot less than 10, and it was in good condition. good luck. but finding a buyer will be very very hard. |

I think when it comes down to it, a car is only worth what somebody is willing to pay for it.
So finding a buyer that will give you what your asking may take some time. If you are looking for 10 grand for your car for example, you can probably find a buyer out there who will buy it, but be prepared to wait...and have plenty of patience lol :voldar02: |
