missing center wheel caps
low rez and photo from a distance but it seems the paint needs to be refreshed
missing left front light
crank windows
it's a 1991 v6
remove the emotion and ask yourself
why did you buy it and what were your expectations? Did you find that your expectations were not met or perhaps what you thought you could compromise you found you could not (power)
what is the reason you want to sell it?
if you can honestly answer those questions you then will have a basic grasp on the market out there.
IMO, if you can get between $1,000 and $2,000 you are doing good.
Any more and you are flirting in 4th gen territory

Not only missing the center wheel caps, those are the wrong (earlier 3rd gen) wheels for the car.
Frankly, I think you paid too much for it in the first place.
About three years ago I sold my 91 305 RS and got $3,200 for it. I feel I did pretty well at the time, but the car market has still softened more since then.
Compare to mine and see where yours falls:
1) I bought from the original owner who was a fellow car nut, and had all prior paperwork, original window sticker, etc.
2) 122k miles
3) V8
4) Body was straight, NO rust, paint shined, all the panels lined up (even the front bumper) and it didn't need a paint job.
5) Undercarriage (floors, frame) was rust free.
6) Mechanically, the engine was tight, didn't use/drip a drop of oil. Transmission was great as well.
7) Had power everything, and everything (including the A/C) worked.
8) Interior was in mint condition, and I mean not the slightest rip, tear, or stain.
If you get what you paid for the car, you'll be doing very good.

You say it needs fuel injectors? Does that mean it is not running well? What proof do you have that it is just the injectors? Every area is a little different. The only way you could get 2K for that car if it run and drive like a new car. Decent running 305's sell for around 2K. $2500 can get you TPI 305 Z28 with 135,000 miles on it.
You have to remember if you take a car to a shop and it "needs injectors" the injectors themselfs are $60-$80 a piece plus fuel filter and O2 sensors you could have a $700 repair at a garage. Anytime you try to sell a car that is not running right you drop off about 80% of your buyers. Less demand = less value. Also Spring is not the best time to sell a Camaro. The price of projects goes up a little at this time of the year because people are looking for project but the price of drivers falls till early spring.
