Value of straight rust free 70 T

I have a 70 T that I am about to put up for sale. Car is rust free (from CA) rebuilt 5 speed, good dash, great driver, 10 footer paint, cookie cutter wheels, gas heater. I was thinking 11K, any opinions?

Why would a california car be ordered with a gas heater?

High Sierra's based owner ?

$11K sounds like a good starting point. How many miles are on
the car, pics?

Hanging in...High Sierras? Is salt used there when it snows? Just my personal opinion, but I'd probably pass on a gas heater car. The heaters themselves were hazardous, plus like with air conditioning, the car was chopped up a bit during the install.

A lot of speculation here. You asked why a Calif car would be ordered w/ a gas heater. I threw out one possiblity.
Could be many others too. Car might have been dealer traded
from a dealer that ordered the car w/ a gas heater. Another
reason might be a mistake in the ordering process.
All of this does not matter...seller's question was pertaining to
value,& his price of $11K, not why the car is equipped w/ a gas heater.

Type 911 thank you, I am trying to get a general idea of what the market price might be for car, not what it is worth to any particular individual even though they are somewhat related.

Let the eBay gods decide. Somebody in Europe will snag it up, like all the others. But just for a rough guess, assuming she's photogenic and good compression numbers, I'd pay ~$10k for a nice T coupe.

Personally I like the aesthetics of the 70 – 71’s better than the 72 – 73’s; the extra pieces of exterior chrome trim and the interior basket weave. I’d end up stroking it to a 2.4 anyway.

Pictures?!

Good luck with the sale.

I'll defer to your obviously superior knowledge...

pu911? My apologies. I thought you were discussing a possible purchase...didn't realize you were selling. Guess I need to read more closely...

No problem. Car is know listed in the for sale section. It's a very solid car at a very reasonable price.
Thanks,
Phil
