Vinny, personally I think reserve auction are a pain in the butt. If you absolutely are not going below a certain price, why not just start there?

Listing on eBay is always tough. I've sold several of my cars as a result, but very few actually sold while listed. In most cases bidding was about 1/2 of what I would consider the market. Also, tended to get random bids from folks jerking my chain.
Anytime I see a "private listing" I'm suspect who is actually bidding and why the seller desires to keep bidders identity private?
You have a nice solid car, but as you know the market for these is limited and the prices/value appears to be declining. You know your bottom line so why not start there? My 2-cents

For the money, with all the parts, extra engine, and for what the car is, it shoud bring the money you are looking for. At last resort sell the car separate and start selling the extra parts including the tri power and engine, The sum of the parts might be greater than the whole.

If car does not sell this time around, I will pull the tri carb and mount it on the 400... sell the car with the torker and 850 Holley and separate the original engine from the car... pull the pan and check the torque specs on the rods and caps, tighten down the rockers... re-oil the cylinders and throw a fresh coat of paint on it then sell it to one of you on the board for $9000!

I'll help you put the 4 BBL back on. I just saw another 442 on Craigs list with a louvered hood. That would go nice on my club coupe. I have the engine paint if needed.
