Default Re: 1970 SS396 Camaro For Sale

I find the Z28's are much more in demand than the big block 2nd Gens. I also think the price is good, maybe let someone beat you down to 35k, but I would not go any lower.

I would not use any professional auctions on this car. My experience (again mine) is that second gen Camaros don't do well at auction.

You can do ok on ebay with a car like yours that presents well. Get some professional pics taken, and write a good ad (maybe post here for tips on a good ad).

Pics of the block stampings would go a long way. I think (like others have said, opinion) the fact that your car has the original engine is much more of a plus than the negatives of color (I like the forest green) and automatic.

Just my .02,

Oh, and I agree on time of year. Income tax return time is much easier to sell a car. Make sure if you do an ebay ad, that the auction does not end on a holiday, Fri or Sat night, or middle of the day. I found that Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings around 8pm central time were prime selling times (east and west coast can bid).

GLWS!

Solid advice, esp regarding the timing of auction ending. I always schedule mine so that both the east and west coast can bid at reasonable evening times.
