I may be selling Livia, as it looks like I may not have a place to keep her in the winter anymore- any thoughts on price? 80k original, lots of work done on suspension, exhaust, interior in decent shape, no rips, UGH.

Well...

The first thing to say is DON'T SELL! I've gotten enough of that when I've threatened... :)

That being said, how's the rust situation? Is the dash in one piece (no cracks)? How's the engine? The cloth top - original/replacement? Is the plastic window in good shape?

Something you might want to think of is getting one of those 'car bags' that I've read about. Basically a big zip-loc that you put your car in, attach a shopvac to, suck out most of the air, then close up. I've heard about people storing their old e-types and Corvettes in them over the winter (outside!) and it working very well.

As for the price, it all depends on the condition and the market. We'll never get what we put in them, so it all depends on how much you're willing to give up.

Good luck,
