Hi I am a new member to this forum. I hope this message gets through. I have a 1972 3.0 CSI which I am interested in selling. I have had the vehicle for about twenty years. It was imported for me from Italy by a friend. The car has had little driving (76377 K) and has been garaged during all the time I have owned it. The car has a spot or two of pitting but no rust. I do not believe there has been any major repair to the car in Italy. I ran a magnet all around the car and found no dead spots There was some nose damage when my son drove the car on his high school graduation about
twenty years ago. This repair was done with lead and not bondo. When I first got the car I had some ding repairs done. I believe it was painted in Italy before I bought it as there are some paint wrinkles in areas adjacent to some trim. It is blue in color ( I do not know the fanciful name for the color) The interior is all original with a minor small tear in the head but no other significant deterioration. The ignition key switch pins are not working and the key turns freely. (no impact on starting or turning the engine off). I have another key switch with key that I got from a wrecking yard many years ago I have included a picture of a variety of miscellaneous parts which include the switch and key To make a long story short. I do not have the passion for the car that many of the forum members express and would like to sell this vehicle. I do not no the fair value of the car and would like to get it appraise for a fair market value. Can anybody help me with some idea of the value of the car or give me directions on how to get some idea. Thanks for your help I enjoy the forum . Thanks Allen

If it runs and drives Ok, and it is truly mostly devoid of rust, then 10-12k.
It is baikal blue, which is a nice color and not too common. I saw a few areas in the engine compartment along the fender seam that look a bit questionable.
Also, where are you located? It looks like a desert state. That helps.
