Good ‘ole WIW thread…..

I'm not selling my Duster or anything but me and my dad were having a conversation about it's value a few days ago and it made me wonder. What do you guys think my car is worth? It's an early built '73 Duster. Numbers matching 318, 904 trans, 8 1/4 rear end. Column shift. Got the fender tag and two buildsheets. S Was originally gold with a black vinyl top and parchment interior. Now dark metallic blue with the parchment interior. Paint is nice but isn't the greatest. Could be way nicer if you put some harsh polishing work into it. Front seat is the bucket style bench with the center armrest. It needs to be redone. Needs carpet, headliner and dash pad. Rest of the interior is beautiful and in awesome shape. Gauges don't work except for speedo and the electrical charge one. Has the big rimmed factory tan steering wheel but I have a Tuff wheel for it. Two new front tires, needs backs soon. Factory granny hubcaps but have freshly painted 15x7 Rallyes for it with 72+ style center caps and rings. Runs awesome and drives nice. Factory power front disc brakes and power steering. Only issue I have with it currentley is the bad ignition switch. Won't start most of the time unless you run a wire from the battery to the coil and cross the points on the starter relay. When it does run, it runs awesome and sounds great. Newer Flowmaster exhaust system. Hooker Competition headers. Body is in great shape. Has body filler in the lower quarters and sail panels (where the quarter & roof meets- the seam there). Front floor pans have fiberglass on them but they weren't that bad to begin with. Minor rust with small holes (about 6 between the two pans). Front fender has a bit of filler I think. Small dent in the taillight panel above & beside left tailight. Could use a new windshield. Factory rear defroster which is super cool. Haven't tested to see if it works though. Have a good front bumper for it. Also have a spare grille, front valance and hood. Trunk and rear floor pans are mint...no rust. Underside is beautiful. Factory dirty undercoating but no rust at all. Rust free on the underside! All lights work except for turn signals (ground problem somewhere). Rebuilt starter, new starter relay, new distributor cap and rotor. Sorry for the speech.....just wanted to give as much info about my car as possible so I can get the closest idea of WIW. Thanks guys!
