Charger prices

[charger_fan_4ever]

I know ive said this before over the years.

BUT really are #s match 440 cars bringing 70K plus ? i saw that here in canada asking prices for r/t 440 cars are now 80-95K restored. I figured as usual canada prices. Went to ebay to find this.

I dont have the original engine or trans from my 70 r/t. Fendertag is b5 with white interior and top buckets console auto. I bought black interior already a 4 speed swap and planning on no console long pistol grip.Sprayed one quarter panel Y1 as was planning yellow.

Actually considering now spraying it back B5 blue. But i wonder at this point if having the original color or not really matters $$ wise as the interior,transmission,upgraded to power front discs had manual drums,vinyl ect are not going to be factory coded.

I have no intentions to sell it, so probably continue as planned just thinking out loud.

I see 383 cars asking that much.  Some examples in the Delusional thread for $70,000 to $95,000 for 383 4-speed cars.

That's eBay and a lot of those cars have been there a while. Just because they are asking that much doesn't mean they are getting it

For sure. I know up here in canada ive seen the big $$ ads disappear. Dont know if that means it sold, or they gave up. In the spring local to me guy had a 68 r/t that had a 80s quickie restore that was bubbling out and needed to be redone again. Sold it for over 50k cdn in very little time. Wasnt a #s match car either.

Mind you this day in age the price of parts, a car to start with and labour. I doubt you could farm one out to be redone and get out of it under $50k all in, so there is that too. I think as time moves on there are less and less of guys that are doing it themselves.

Agree with earlier posts... I have watched ebay for months and these pop back up several times.   They don't seem to be selling... at least the ones I have followed.

Check the completed auctions to see what they are really selling for, tells a slightly different story....

I've seen cars sit for a year or more on eBay with crazy high prices. If I remember RKM had a couple cars in the 250k range that sat for over a year without a bite.

Plz do tell ? I didnt know you could search for completed.

[timmycharger]

when you are in Ebay, on the left hand side you can select Sold or Completed items. I think you may need to be a member for this option, but it looks like this...

[charger_fan_4ever]

Awesome thanks.

I will assume the buy it now "completed" were where someone clicked the buy it now or do expired buy it nows fall in there too ?

Does mecum have a completed sale list ? I wouldnt go buy barret jackson but mecum auctions seem real legit.

And as another member said big difference.

#s match 70 hemi was bit to 79k.

Completed lets you see the price it was bid up to.

Sold means it actually sold (for that price).

i just sold one for sub but not far south of 100k

[F8-4life]

Realistically they need a hemi or a wing to sell for caliber of pricing.
Plus your looking at dealer cars, and really who buys a classic charger from a dealer except for a guy that would overpay for a XS U code car just to have it by the weekend.

I always like to watch ebay and see what I could not afford. Now there they even cost more.

But Brian , your car was a quality piece and deserved that $$$ figure . Not to many come up for sale that we can say "wow" nice Charger . Some if not most of the Chargers we see for sale ,  we all here that have a good eye can usually catch some form of mistakes/noticeable imperfections  on them .

I'm in Canada and I just got an Offer that is very difficult to refuse, so in my opinion Yes, I think the #'s matching Cars are still popular ?
Then again,
I think the fella who offered is more enamored with it being still Original in great shape,(NOT rebuilt/restored), and #'s Matching.
