97 Sho

[PFA]

Anybody have an idea of what the value on this would be? It has around 107K miles, red with grey leather. Just the side bolster has some wear and a wear spot on the carpet. Engine is...well, it spun a sprocket. I have had this car for about 4 months and simply have had little time to work on it and less forseen in the future. I'm thinking of giving up the project of fixing it.
Any input would be helpful here. Thanks.

Idk but did you report it over at v8sho.com?

 

[PFA]

yep, they got the info. and I think I sent them a picture. I posted the picture here of the spun sprocket.

I am afraid its value with a spun cam sprocket is very low. Below $1000. You might find it a better money thing to part it out.

I have probably found a buyer at $1200. I think this is a good price to get for it. I wish I had more time on my hands to work on it. If the deal doesn't come through, no biggie. I'll get around to it eventually.

Are valves free willing on the v8?

For whatever reason, the starter will not turn the engine over. None of the valves are being pushed right now by the cam. I have seen a 'yard here in MI that usually has engines for around $1500. The car overall is very nice with newer brakes and tires.
