Default What's it worth

My uncle has recently upgraded to a new xr6 turbo. His previous ride was an au falcon that he has delivered to my place to detail and sell for him.

It is a series one. 200,000+ klms. It is a bit interesting because it was factory ordered with tickford suspension, LSD and rear wing. It has some aftermarket 15' alloys. It is just the stocko six and auto, but I wondered if it was worth anything with the tickford stuff.

He was after 2 grand as is (not bad nick, could do with a polish - it is white) but then reckoned if he got me to detail it and get the front discs machined (typical au series one brakes - warping constantly), get a rwc etc then he might ask around $3500 for it.

Looking around, it seems that you can pick up some au's under 2grand with rwc.

Trouble is, I don't really want to work on it at the moment. I have a few other things to focus on (wife, kids, work, staying sane etc), but he's offered me 25% of every dollar he gets over 2grand.

Considering the higher kays (220,000 i think) would he even get that much for it privately in the current climate?

I just don't want to put anyeffort into it, unless there is a financial reward.

Would I be better off asking 2K as is (just to get rid of it for him) or spending the time to get $3000 - 3500 (so I could pocket dough)

What are your thoughts?
