I have a 1988 Samurai For Sale - What's it worth?
« on: October 27, 2011, 05:49:17 PM »
We have a Suzuki Samurai for sale, 1988 4x4.  Very little rust on the body, its pretty solid.  Runs good has a front end wobble above 40mph.  Interior is in pretty rough shape.  What do you think it's worth?  I would like to sell it, but don't want to just give it away.

Thanks for your reply!

What do you think it's worth?

What somebody is willing to pay for it  ;D  ;)
A prospective buyer needs more info. What is the "wobble" caused by? Easy to fix? Is the rig stock? Any upgrades done to it? Mileage? Pictures? Where is it located? What are Zuks in similar condition going for in your area? All of these things will help you determine a fair price for all parties involved.  ;)

All good points...    :-[

Not sure what the wobble is, so not sure if it's easy to fix.  It's completely stock, the speedometer is broke,  so I have no idea how many miles are on it.  We've had this at our cabin for the last 17 years, my husband, son & I would take it for rides in the woods.  4 wheel drive works, it goes great in the trails.  Engine is strong but burns a little oil.  Interior is really rough, exterior is straight & only tiny amounts of surface rust (where it was scratched). Its up at our cabin in Northern Michigan, I will take photos next time I go up.   To me, anything that runs & drives is worth $500, but I know these bodies are kind of scarce which should drive the price up a little...no?
