Value of a 1977 911S

[911boost]

As I own a Carrera and know little about it ( I am learning), I have family friend that has a 1977 911S he is looking to sell. While I do not know very much, the car is located in Estes Park, Colorado. I will tell you what I know:

it is gold with brown/plaid interior. he says the interior is not bad, there is one small crack on the dash. The gold exterior is tired and it needs to be repainted.

The 2.7 has had some recent work, and all records are there. I am not sure exactly what has been done, but he says it runs strong.

I can go and take some pictures fo the car if anyone is interested, as for the cost, I really do not know what the value is, so I would like some input. He is a pilot and is based out of Phoneix now, so i think if someone wanted it, he might negotitate.

Gold '77 with bad paint and a brown plaid interior?

Depends a lot on the condition, miles, what's been done to the engine, etc.

But since you are asking for a sight unseen guess, around $6500 - $7500 maybe?

I'd say SoCal's in the ballpark...within 10-20% of that range. Good paint is looking at a minimum of 3-4k. Need more history on the 2.7...coupe's are more highly valued than the targa, etc.

I'd even go as far as saying $5500-$6500

what really hurts is the color and the bad paint, a new paint job is $4000-5000...unless you find the right buyer...
