Some SWAGs.....
Assuming that everything works on it.
If it's at least a 20' car (looks good from 20') for both the interior and
exterior, try $2,500 OBO, maybe even $2,900 if you aren't in a hurry.
If it was good-looking up close maybe the asking price could go up to mid
3s.
As long as it runs and is basically sound, it's always worth over $1K. If it
has some issues that aren't too severe, try $1,950.
As with 6-cylinder Mustangs from the '60s, if you could stash it away for
another 10-15 years, it would probably gain more value because of being a
convertible.

Subject: [Shotimes] (OT) pricing an 83 Mustang
I want to sell our 1983 Mustang convertible. Obviously the usual websites
(NADA, KBB, Edmunds) are not useful for placing a value on a car that old.
The price guide at Hemmings Motor News is based on year/model and shows
prices of cars that have sold in the last 60 days. Hemmings apparently sold
only one car, and $6250 is too high for ours.
Can you point me to other resources or at least give me your own assessment?
152K miles, yellow car repainted green by PO, white & black interior, V6
auto, newer tan vinyl roof. Condition kinda rough. No rust, former AZ car.
Any suggestions welcome. Thanks.
