I'm new to the website, and have a '69 Firebird that's been in my family for over 30 years. Sat in a barn for 10. It's a 6 cylinder overhead cam, automatic. Runs fair but needs work, leaks some fluids. has a clean body, decent vinyl top. No AC, radio dead. Original interior, but worn. I had a friend put disc brakes in it, but it needs restoring. Any idea what I should ask for it?
Hard to say without pics, but 6 cylinder cars don't have a very strong position in the market right now. Especially with the two speed auto, and especially after being parked for an extended time. I just bought a nicely equipped 400 4 speed convertible for not much more than the price listed above. I'd say in the $6K range if it's a 1 bbl car.
But then again, some people spend fairly big money on eBay on cars that I wouldn't give a second look to. There is a batch of cars for sale on eBay now that are fresh out of storage and were mostly worn out when they were put in, and they are getting good money for poorly stored poor condition cars.
If it was local, I'd trade in my Neon for it.

I'd have to aggree with Bjorn and Vikki. I have seen the OHC-6 convertibles climbing in resale prices, but not the coupes. The pricing guides have the six cylinder 'birds priced high from what I've been watching.
