    Why not put it on epay and set a reserve and see where it goes??? I had a friend try to sell me back my 1943 Ford GPW (WWII Jeep) just to keep it in "the family", for $6500. I know it was a good deal as I had sold him the Jeep 1 year earlier, but now I did not want it. He put it on Epay and sold if for $9300---soooooo, ya never know.

    Why don't you quite trying to make money on it and sell it for what you got into it. It is too hard to "flip" restoreable cars, why even try it. Put it on eBay and see where it goes, I am sure you can get your money back. Why didn't take the 2 grand from craigslist? Are you looking for a goldmine to open up with it in the next couple weeks? Sell it to someone who wants it and who will treat it right.

    upon review of your pics it looks like a nice alll 69 javelin with 68/69 amx hood.the grille is 69 jav and the tailights/rear panel are definitely 68/69 jav or amx.i see no 1970 parts on that car.gold book value for that car is approx 4K in the condition it appears to be in.

    Why don't you quit trying to make money on it and sell it for what you got into it....because I bought the car to make money on it........funds for my own project.
    It is too hard to "flip" restoreable cars, why even try .....huh...aren't most of these cars extreme rust buckets...it is a '69...thirty eight years old....."flip" restoreable cars....huh...who doesn't want a "restorable" car?....I know on the mid to east coast of Canada most all old cars like this are non existent...I have had some inquires already! This car has lived on the wet coast all it's life...ie no salty winters

    Why didn't take the 2 grand from craigslist? ...this fellow is a local muscle car dealer and the offer was 8 hours after I advertised it....offer still stands.....hmmm..a local dealer with a two grand offer instantly...I bet the car has still more worth here locally...told him $2800 come and get it ...
    Are you looking for a goldmine to open up with it in the next couple weeks?......could likely get more on eBay....and let the rusty provinces and states fight over what they would likely think is a nice restoreable car.....but the hassle

    But thanks for your input....again I am learning an AMC curve....cars are not appreciated "YET" in my opinion

    Added pics of car

    saw the complete photo album,door panels are 1970 SST,same for mirror,spoiler could be 1970 donahue or repro.interior a little rough but not bad,aftermarket velour headliner cheap and improves alot.as for rust is there one out there that doen't have issues near rear window(arizona cars excluded),quite fixable.lots of valuable parts you have there on a COMPLETE car and since now you know the scarcity of these cars you can easily figure why that dealer offered 2K so quickly.just my 37 cents worth of opinion here,why not fix some of the easy stuff,make it presentable inside and i bet you'll make a decent return on that car

    Wow, I never would have guessed it would have sold anywhere near that.
