As it says in the title how much is a good wedge worth ? 350i
The prices on e bay seem to vary from approx £1k upwards.
Ideas please.

There are sprint cars that sell for approx £2800 but the good looking cars that don't seem to sell for approx £4k to a special edition 350se up for £6.5k that didn't sell on e bay or car and classic.

I've a project in mind that has a very good body, chassis could do with some minor touch up work paint only,
it has a rebuilt bottom end new crank, cam, top hat liners etc but the top end needs rebuilding and the whole thing needs putting back together.

I know what the owner wants but what is it realistically worth in your opinions.

What do you think ?

Thanks for your thoughts.
I have the opportunity to buy a wedge (Don't want to say too much about it at the moment) that is fairly well known.

The body is fantastic/ chassis needs a touch up in the engine bay, the engine is out but has been partly repaired new liners, crank, rods, balanced new cam kit (Loads spent on it) just needs £500 spending to finish it off then fitting.

That would be all that needed doing.The owner want's £4k for it as it stands so with all the bits it could work out to nearly £5k.

I could offset some of the cost by selling my old wedge approx £1800 according to what some of you are saying.
Just unsure of spending that amount on a car that won't get used that much for a few months.

Thoughts
