85 Celica GTS Convertible boot question
« on: Apr 12, 2022, 08:43:00 pm »
Hey guys, it's been 16 years since I've posted.  Used to have an 85 Celica convertible.  Sold it but still have the convertible boot.  Looking for advice on how to sell and what it's worth.  It's in ok condition, no rips but the clips are broken.  Thanks.

Make a post on here about it with pictures and a price. If you are active on Facebook use their Marketplace to make a sale ad.

is this in regards to the parade boot? if so, those are extremely sought after, and can typically fetch more money than some whole cars ive seen

Its the cover that goes on top when the top is down.  It's an aesthetic item but definitely a must as without it, the car doesn't look very nice.  I recall it selling for $500 on ebay 15 years ago but not sure if it's gone up or down.

for the parade boot, those have definitely gone wayyyyyyyy up. its seemingly the most sought after convertible component, second to maybe the seatbelt retainers on the seats. i highly HIGHLY recommend posting that to the celica groups on facebook, you can definitely catch a very good price for it, even in its condition im sure
