    How much is it worth? '82 245GLT w/power sunroof 4Sale 200 1982

    Okay, I will describe in more detail, since the pictures are not here yet.
    The black paint is wearing through on the roof, the tailgate hinges are worn out, of course the rear window defroster doesn't work because the wires are all broken where they go through the hinges, thus the rear wiper and the license plate lights don't work either. A deer ran out in front of me in January and revealed that the hood had alot of bondo on it, but I have a silver hood to replace it with, but the deer also slightly dented the left front fender just behind the turn signal assembly. There is only one small spot of rust that I can find underneath. No luggage rack.
    The power antenea still works! but the switch in the center console is not secure. All glass is intact but the left rear needs only the swith to be operational, and I have one to refurbish. All the power door locks work, except the tailgate of course. The power mirrors work fine. All gauges are operational, and the clock works. The odometer seems to register one mile every two, and the tripo works when it wants to. I have an original radio/cassette player to replace the aftermarket thing that only plays through the left rear speaker. The heater fan is dead. Sunroof broke a cable and the switch fell apart. The A/C compressor is a boat anchor and resides on my garage floor. Overdrive works if you fix the wiring to the switch in the gear shift knob (it is the M46 trans). The upholstery is a mess, leather is dry and cracked/torn, the guy who had it before me spilled white house paint on the back seat and now the floor mat is permanently affixed to the carpet. Headliner ripped and torn. Glove box latch still works!
    The car has 238000 miles according to the odo, but we know it is over 250k...
    All the suspension needs new bushings. I still drive it everyday! I love it.

    What do you mean by "poor condition"? (I suppose the pictures will reveal all.) A GLT with a sunroof and in good/pristine condition could easily fetch a couple of grand, but if the body of the car is nearly toast, then it's pretty much useless.

    If it's just the interior that's trashed--as in nothing that's not semi-easily replacable--then you may still find a buyer, but if it's rust that's at work, then good luck. Parting it out would likely give the largest yield.

    Yeah seriously if the floor, rocker, and rear quarter panel rust are quite bad, the car is worth more for parts.

    Look on ebay- people are making their money from these cars by taking them apart. The steering wheel alone probably will be worth the most- I know I'd pay money for it. (It would go nicely with my R-sport wing....)

    Hello,

    $300 and only if the R-sport wheel is in good shape and the 15" Virgo alloy wheels are still on it. Otherwise $100 bucks tops.

    If anything the sunroof devaluates the car further, but we're talking a dime a dozen rough 22 year old car here.
