Selling My '80 SC - What Price?

I'm close to putting my SC on the market, so I can focus on restoring my '67. What price should I list?

Some details:
110k miles
All paperwork since new.
15k on new headstuds and top end (new rings, valve grind, etc.)
4 years on bare metal paint. I changed the color to Irish Green (213). I spent hours perfecting the primer, but the painter left a few imperfections. It's not perfect paint, but very nice looking.

Runs and looks excellent, great interior with excellent original seats and headliner. The dash was recovered in leather, but the leather is shrinking around vents and edges. It still look fine, but not perfect.

Newer parts:
Bilstein sport shocks in rear, HD in front
Ball joints, turbo tie rods, front bearings
H4 headlamps
Airbox
Dansk sport muffler and Dansk euro premuffler
All new weather seals


Older Improvements:
Updated oil fed chain tensioners
Turbo Valve Covers
Improved oil temp gauge (with numbers)

The car is ready to be driven. The only future issue could be a tranny refresh. You have to stop to put the car in first and it's a bit stiff to shift sometimes. However, it hasn't gotten worse in the 8 years I've owned the car.
