Landrover challenge chasis help

Hi all. I have a landrover challenge chasis/cage. I purchased this around 2 years ago to build, but didnt realise the skill needed! Any ideas of where is best to sell such a specialised item?

Ebay or whatever site you purchased it from....

I purchased it from someone i met off roading and i have it on ebay but hasnt had any interest, but as its not what i thought i purchased i dont know much about it.

You mean it hasn't got any interest for the amount you think it's worth or even starting at 99p it's not sold?

It hasnt had interest for the amount i believe it to be worth, wether this is because its quiet specialised or wether its not worth what i think. So was looking for abit of advice from someone who knows abit about these things.

What price did you advertise it at?

I have it on ebay at £1290.
Less then what i paid.

You could buy a whole car for less than that.

You can buy a whole car for £300. Doesnt mean that's all its worth, do you know what these are worth?

No, I've got no idea what they are worth.

Try advertising it with an asking price of "Serious Offers" and see what sort of response you get. You'll be able to determine what people are willing to pay for it then.

Yep....
But first who made it?
I can tell it had 3 winches

Yes, ive being told its designed for 3 winches and has the mounts for the big gas struts.
I know the person who made it is from the uk, was built to the correct specs. Ive contacted the person ive bought it from to see if he knows who built it. Its being a couple of years now though.

Nope, do you?

Cheers

You are better off posting it in a few FB offroad based selling sites.

Cheers

These are not worth much,as you need to do a full rebuild on it.
All you are really selling is a chassis with no ID so about £500.

What wheel base is it?

As far as im aware its a defender 90 chassis but has being cut down slightly.

Specialist item so limited market.
And thanks to covid lots of people without any money to spend on toys.
You may be better sitting on it until 'normality' resumes - however long that might be.

I'm with the £500 estimate. There's not the money about and it still needs a lot of work. Also time moves on so every year better designs come out and new ideas.so there's a limited window to sell, better off load it now at any price rather than spend a lot of time chasing the value down. I would jet wash it, measure every dam thing, take the 12 photos e-bay allows and put your best shot into the add. Do a google images search and see if you can find something similar in an action shot. Put that that in the add "serving suggestion, real item may look different..." Remember the Theory of the greater fool" - a fool has not over paid if he can find a greater fool to sell it to. Find that fool and make them feel good about your chassis.
