That's a had question
As I sold mine complete no rwc 13day reg left for 19k within 3weeks of advertising it at 19k
Had it 21k for 2 weeks and only 2 calls

Where as I saw car there at same time same price (18-25) now asking 10-15 for the same cars

I think you'll find if it the right person and right car you'll get good money

But other then that, how much rust and how complete will determine the price
Deff not in the hundreds unless your buying rust with a side of parts
But deff 2-8k idd say bassed on the word project being used and no discretion

Thanks for that John!
The ute is complete. It is stripped down to a rolling shell and have all the parts.
The only rust is in the usual spot of the floor pans but have new ones to put in.
Did you advertise yours on here?

Yes
But got all my leads through carsales (well worth the $60)
Gumtree all it have me was scam emails and tyre kickers with >500 to spend and looking at +20k cars
I had it on eBay as well and some calls said they saw it there but wouldn't spend that sort of $$$ site unseen

The biggest thing I can say is keep the prices consistent
Don't change them bassed on the fees or cost involved that just something you will need to eat of tell people they need to pay
Ie like paypal welcome but all fee to be payed by buyer,
Ring around a few transport companies and get freight charges to there they main dep, in a few states
And don't charge for del to transports company, if you can't del to them price it for your house pickup,
For some resion this deters buyers "idd del for $100 or $70+ fuel"
If you need to charge don't offer it, let them ask or arrange it in the price

Post some pics up in the sale section and get a fell for thing
But what we think it's worth and the real world $$$ is too different things
When you see subframes at a bargain basement price of $1999

Cool! Thanks for you feed back!!!
The first thing i did was advertise on carsales but they wouldn't
put the add online as it wasn't a "working vehicle".
Then i was un shore where to advertise it. Yeah i have used Gumtree a couple of times
but the same as yourself nothing but samers!!!
I know what you mean by what you want for something and what its worth.
Thats what makes it hard to price.
But ill put it on here and see how i go.
Cheers!!!
