You could part this car out and make more money than $2K (not suggesting to do that though, as that would be stupid). It has the stock matching numbers 440HP engine with HD torqueflite (beefed up planet carriers and clutches, etc), HP exhaust manifolds, and dual snorkel air cleaner. And the wheel covers would easily fetch $1.5K - as they are unobtainable, probably as rare as the so-called recall wheels on the 69s. Those parts alone are probably worth at least $4K, so the rest of the car included, all together and matching numbers isn't worth at least $5K? If this car were B7 blue, it would have been gone long ago at even $8 - $10K. This stuff about maybe worth $2K makes zero sense to me and this cheap think attitude among C body owners is one of the major reasons we can't find reproduction parts for these cars. Many people complain to me that I should not sell cars overseas, not leaving many here in the U.S.
But those outside the U.S. are willing to pay reasonable sums for these cars since they seem to appreciate their value much more than the guys here in the U.S. and they actually restore them to very nice condition, while the guys here in the U.S. just talk about it most of the time.
