Frankly for what the car is and all the things that have already been done, I think $15K is pretty damn cheap.
Tracey, Have you considered marketing it through the enthusiast clubs? I've sold a number of specialty cars and always started there first. I ended up shipping most of them, but that was arranged by the buyer anyway. I usually got top $$ that way. You probably are already informed but here's one list of resources -

This outfit is local to me.

They do a bunch of Barrett Jackson cars that used to go into 7 figures. I think that has calmed down some, but when I toured their facility they told me they also specialized in clones and recreations. Yours is a real GTO with some non-original stuff, so maybe all the better. I would send them an email and see if they're interested. At one time they were selling GTX clones for $150k. Not sure about a GTO.

Thanks for the tip Bob. Yeah I have considered that alternative ad I may well end up going that route. I was kinda hoping a local would buy it so I could see it when it was all put back together!
