What is the best way to sell a classic mustang?


As the question asks how should this car be sold?
Details, my parents are looking to build an art gallery and so have decided to sell their car, I like this one a lot so I think it's a mistake since it's one of the only american cars I would drive.

Its a 67 GTA close to fully restored, had been completley till a small engine fire from the carb while on the way to get the carb replaced.
Engine has since been redone and the engine bay cleaned up quite a bit.
Before the incident it had won several firsts and seconds but needed smaller things like the steering wheel refinished and the aluminum panels touched up, just minor cosmetic nit picking stuff. Needless to say it's a rare, perfectly running car so they're trying to hit the largest audience with money possible. Best places to list?

What kind of price are you going to ask for it? Send some pics. I will try to see what they are going for. What motor do it have in it? Maybe a 289

At the roundup (mentioned earlier) I've seen mustangs in the middle of resto. get sold for 10 grand, thats like just primer, things still needing to be fixed on the engine and other such things, i don't know if it is the same at other car shows but most of them are like that here.

"dont go selling that car to a chevy guy...sell it to someone who you know will give it a good home....

ebay " Make sure that you be as honest as possible about it, and you will sell it a lot faster than if you glorify the truth about it.
