Selling old cars is a hassle and especially so for those not involved in the old car hobby.
The time to get better money for it has long passed, it has sat and deteriorated to the point where the value has greatly diminished.

I agree 100%. As a long time GTO guy, I have to say that even if the car were free, the amount of $$$ and time and labor to undo all the damage would exceed the value by quite a bit. 60-80k to restore a car worth 35-40 at the end of the day. If it were a tripower 4 speed car, it would be worth more, but as a comfort loaded auto car, the ROI is not there.
