Put a for sale sign on it at the track. I tried, craigslist, racing junk, news paper, just about everything. Sold it at the track. Did just that....couldn't believe it. 4 lookers and one was a buyer. He had just sold his and wanted something else. He asked my bottom dollar and I told him. Tried to get it for less and I said absolutely not. In fact I told him he might talk me up a few hundred if he wanted to. Thanks all for the advice.
Yeah, it's got a smallblock.

I prepare a bill of sale in advance that includes every part of the description, condition, origin, service history, etc. in the ad and require the buyer to sign my copy - prevents "you never told me" complaints. For race vehicles: "not legal for street use, cannot pass inspection". Anyone paying full price is a scam. Any overpayment with a refund is a different scam: "I accidentally bought the money order for $500 too much. Wait 3 days, then send me your money order for $500 and I'll be there Tuesday to pick up the car". He doesn't want the car at all - he wants the $500. Anything but actual U.S. currency is dangerous - including certified checks and wire transfers. If during business hours, take the buyer and his money to your bank and have the teller put it through their counterfeit-detection counting machine. I just got a bad $50 selling a bike - which the bank seized.
