Youre not going to get 9K for it, thats just unrealistic and it will not sell for that price. Unless you either drop the price and take a hit, or swap motors and get cash then sell for a lower price you are going to have a very difficult time. Having a car that you put money into just sit there is doing it no good, take it out on a cruise and enjoy the damn thing. Just because you take it out doesnt mean you have to be beating the balls off the thing as to where youre going to break parts.
