The pictures are worth their weight in gold as well for restoration purposes.

Nice Car,I have seen that car before,I just cant place it,may have been on ebay,I am always the skeptic when it comes to low mileage on these cars, it was to easy back in the day to discconnect the cable.Still a very nice color combo.

:shock:

A 33 year old car in those conditions,... was his garage vacuum seal :D she is a beauty but I have my suspicion, I mean this is a really rare find, is in it?...I would think that 25K under those conditions if they are all true is a good asking price, what do you guys think?

I did notice the headliner seems to have some strange stains. Maybe condensation or mold? Surprised he didn't mention it but I don't think it affects the value much. I'd probably get the headliner fixed and try to run it through Barret-Jackson if I was trying to sell it. Maybe even ebay. Too bad it's got a little motor.

u never know tho...the guy and lady behind my gma's house have a daytona, superbird, 6 pack challenger, a cuda, and an orange 71 b...don't member which one, tho........but somehow they managed to come into all of those cars in the 3 years they came new...maybe someone died??? idk but anyway, all original and PERFECT. then there are some old ppl in good ol' btown that have mint lincolns, cadillacs, and crown vics 20 some years old....guess it really depends on how you take care of em. i got a new mustang a few months ago and i do EVERYTHING to keep that lookin sharp and runnin like a top...shame to see it all dirty from these nasty snow and ice storms the last week or so... :cry:

Must have a lot of money to blow! How many guys here can buy the new dodge challenger and put only 166 or so miles a year in hopes that in 33 years the car wil be worth more than when you purchased it new? Were talking maybe 40,000$,its a lot of money to have tied up unless you have a lot of money to blow.

In the early seventies 3-4000$ was a lot of money, people back then thought that these cars were going by the way of the dino, because of the oil embargo.Everybody was dumping these cars for better fuel economy.Thats why survivor cars are rare.
