Default Vehicle Value - Project Car

I have owned a 1994 Civic EX Coupe that was just stolen and recovered after having a few parts taken. I am wondering if you guys might be able to give me a value of the vehicle in the market. I am considering not getting it fixed (or not totally fixed) and trying to sell it to someone who might be looking for a good project starting point. Here are the details:

1994 Civic EX Coupe, Fully Loaded (Air, Roof, Spoiler, ABS...) It has about 107K miles on it. The engine and transmission are in perfect condition (the car is completely stock, driven by my wife for the last 6 years). It also has new tires.

Here is what it needs:
Ignition and column cover
Front left quarter panel
Front left corner lamp
Drivers inside door panel
Drivers inside door switches
Drivers exterior door trim (all the trim around the window)
Rear spoiler (cracked by thieves)
Possible passenger window regulator (window does not operate)

So what do you think a fair value for the car would be as is?

Thanks for your help!

David

I'd say roughly 3K for that car. or maybe 3.5K.

Depends on where you're located. I think you should take out that motor, sell it and then sell the car to me.

I am located in Salt Lake City... I was thinking of putting the car up on eBay once I get some pics

I was just reading another thread about thieves, and I'll tell you what... They are everywhere, they are cowards, and they dont care if you have mods or not (again mine was 100% stock, including the radio).

with it being a theft recovery, it probably wont sell for too much more then what it cost you to buy it back from the ins. co.
with 107k, and the damage done to it, id say around 1,800, at least around here (kansas city) anyway.
My 92 si with 120k was hit in the left front, and i bought it back for 300 bucks. with no other damage to the car other then normal dings.

Thanks everyone for your input...

Luckily the car is not considered a total so I don't have to buy it back from the Ins Co. I just don't want to deal with the repairs, and frankly I don't need a second car. Look for it on eBay in the next few days... will be pretty cheap, around the 1.5k mark - It'll make a great project car!

I wouldn't want to pay more than $2k for the car and that would depend on whether it had the 90k service done. Also, is this an auto or manual? Most people looking for a project car want a manual.
