[BLACKJACK]

A Mechanic Who Has Been Working On My Cars Has Been "busting My Chops" Wanting To Buy My Excalibur.

The Only Reason I Would Consider Selling It Is That We Have A Three Car Garage - Now Holding The Era Cobra, Era Gt-40 And The Excalibur. We Are Just About To Get Our Track Car Back From The Shop And I Really Don't Want To Have A 40k Plus Track Car Parked In The Driveway.

I Have Absolutely No Idea What The Car Is Worth. Any Suggestions Would Be Greatly Appreciated.

It's A 1995 EXcalibur With The Following Features:

** 302 H.o. Engine. Stock Except For A Hypertech Chip And Msd Ingition Box.

** 4aode Automatic Transmission Modified By Dana Briscoe. (very Quick & Very Firm).

** Air Conditioning (i Know - A Real Sissie Car).

** Custom Hard Top - Fitted & Installed By Ed Combs. (double Venom).

** 20,000 Easy (and Very Comfortable Miles On It)

** Brand New Headers And Side Pipes - Silver Ceramic Coated. All The Weird Cat Converters And Convoluted Exhaust Stuff Is Gone.

** Four Point Simpson Race Type Seat Belts & Shoulder Harness.

** Big - Super Bright - Hella Diving Lights. (i Mean - You Stand In Front Of These Suckers When Lit And You Won't Have Any More Kids).

** Two Talbot 4 Inch Mirrors And Cobra Hood Latches Installed.

** Original Haartz Cloth Soft Top And Haartz Cloth Tonneau Cover As Well.

** Ford 9 Inch Limited Slip Rear End.

** Registered As A 1966 Cobra Replica In Virginia.

Like I Said - I Love The Car - And I'm Not Sure That I Even Want To Sell It. If He Keeps Pushing Me I May Have A Weak Moment And Would Like To Be Able To Give Him A Price.

Thanks Very Much - - And - -

Y'all Have A Really Great Day.

Blackjack,

1. Sell the others and keep the one you love to DRIVE. They still make the others, but not any more Excaliburs.

2. That said, if mental instability takes a firm hold and you give him a price, the six I've seen sell in the last six months or so have been in the $33-$40 K range. In my opinion, yours is in the top part of that range. The last one that I know of, xxx177 VIN, was sold by Harry Kaufmann (dealer in vintage cars) and my guess is that it went for over $40 K with 16 K miles. Nice car with a late (probably the last) regular VIN. Your car is comparable in condition and some of its features are very rare (built 4AODE, awsome hardtop, sorted exhaust, 9 inch, BLACK). Call Harry and see what he thinks they are worth and where they are going. I read in Kit Car the new Excalibur effort is not happening, more reason to prize your Excalibur.

3. Take some deep breaths, sell one of your garage queens that you don't drive often and keep the black beauty- seriously!
