I know what I want for mine, what I'll get is probably a different story though...

hehe, just about every time i take my plymouth out i get people coming up to me interested in it, what i payed, if i would like to sell it to someone they know who wants a hearse etc.
payed 5k for it because the guy was in a rush to go interstate and needed rid of it, got offered 12k a few months later after doing no work to it. but its hard to put a value on this thing as it really is a one of a kind in australia. |

I had an offer of 10k for the XB shortly after I'd just got the current one on the road. I told the bloke $15k and I'd walk home. I told him the specs and what sort of $ had been invested. He had to pick his jaw up off the ground. I'm gald he didn't offer enough, I enjoy driving it too much. $15k now doesn't buy the new engine and trans.

I wouldn't sell any of mine but life changes and things can get desperate so as much as I'd want to say it, I can't say I'd "never" sell them. Although, I have worked out in my head what I'd ask for them though:
1970 Dodge Challenger R/T - $100,000 - 110,000 1973 Plymouth 'Cuda - $75,000 - $80,000 2002 Ford T3 TS50 - What I paid for it off the previous owner as I said he'd get first dibs on the car if it were sold, something he asked of me and I'll honor.

Wish somebody would offer a phat 20k for the VTII Acclaim (a ridiculous price...that's the point!) but they won't. So we're stuck with the Commy. But that's ok. The engine has a nice roar. |

If someone was to come up to me with a good offer it would go, since we have had it 5 people have wanted to buy it. But the way it is now it would want to be a bloody good offer though.
