I thought 15k is about right for this one?

I was offered 10 times that amount (literally) and I wouldn't sell mine.  I think they are one of the nicest looking Muscle Cars ever built.

IYO. But, I think the 69's is the best year fastback.. Nice car though.  :cheers:
If you were offered 150K and did not take it, you must be loaded.

I wouldn't take a million for it.  It was the car that prompted & started ECS 17 years ago!  :2thumbs:

It seems most Mopar people assume every Camaro or Mustang is cheap. Bad assumption! A Boss 302 is neither common nor cheap - especially not a low mileage car with (hopefully) all the original parts. Heck, my 70 Mach 1 has a book value higher than every single one of my Mopars except the 68 Charger R/T 4-speed. As for restoration costs, you can build 2-3 Mustangs with NOS or very good repro parts for what it costs to do a 68-70 Charger. That car is still overpriced but not by nearly as much as you may think.

As an aside, one of the largest collectors/builders of 69 "R" Code (428 CJ Shaker) Mustangs is just up the road from me. Last time I took dad for a visit there were 14 finished cars plus a 69 Shelby, a 70 Boss 302 4-speed project and a 69 Torino Cobra. My dad spent most of his time looking at the Boss 302. Must be where I get my love for twisty roads...

That would work if I was more concerned about value than anything else! ;) They match (both are blue/white) so if I sell one I don't have bookends any more. Then my books will fall over and that would make a mess.

Sarcasm detector, that's a real good invention.

I'd have to agree.  Personally, the 69 fastback would be the stang for me.  Don't let that detract from the fact your 70 is absolutely stunning though.  :cheers:
