Life isn't Father Knows Best anymore, it's a kick in the face on a saturday night with a steel toed grip kodiak work boot and a trip to the hospital all bloodied and bashed.....for reconstructive surgery. But, what doesn't kill us, makes us stronger, right?

The bugle sounds the charge begins. But on this battlefield no one wins.

todays market - high teens .
trade in value mid to low teens.

being a non  R/T and 3 way green I have my doubts it would get $20-25K in todays market. MAYBE 20K with the options .

If it's a bondo buggy and/or non-matching numbers drivetrain , everything changes

just my  :Twocents:

A member here can't get 20 out of these  :shruggy:

http://www.dodgecharger.com/forum/index.php/topic,61012.0.html

But then again it is a 70 :coolgleamA:

Yep the "catfish" look kills value! ;)

Hey!! I like the 70 grill!! It's my favorite behind the 68 grill  :D


This car looks like a $20k car to me, problem is what bank is loaning that kind of money these days? Even people with good credit can't seem to get loans. Then again some people don't need loans and are not affected by the economy.

You guys know me and 60% of the time, I'm right everytime.    :icon_smile_big:    That car is mint for an original.    :drool5:    I'm guessing about $24,000 to $28,000.    :yesnod:

and consider this.. trade in value is totally different than retail value.  the guy who trades it in may get 8-10K for it, while the dealer is hoping to make a killer profit off of it.

the guy is better off selling it outright then to trade it in if you ask me, but he may not want to deal with the hassle of it all.  :shruggy:

me? i have no idea what these cars are worth anymore.

get the guy to sell it to kenny  :nana:  hey kenny? want a 70 for the collection?

All I want to know is who in their right mind trades a '70 Charger in on something? :coocoo: :coocoo:

Anyway, I'd say it's worth about $20k from what I can tell. Maybe more since it appears to be all original. Any rust issues?

It's a restored original so resto pics would give us a better idea.

I too agree. A few years ago maybe 20k. Nice car regardless.

Wow, nice but if they are trading it in... I go with RD, here.  Trade in and figueing most dealer and what profit they want from a trade in... I bet they wont offer more than $13-15 on trade in and put it out for $20,000 ish...  Just my thoughts..

That is a great car, but the market now its not like it was that is for sure.

I've only ever seen a few hot rods traded in to dealers. Both that I do remember well had major issues and the dealer was stuck eating both. One was a mid 60's Vette and the other a 69' RS/SS Camaro. They both had cracked blocks.

As mentioned earlier, WHO would TRADE IN a 70' Charger to a dealer??  Something stinks......   :shruggy:

What makes you say it's restored?  (I didn't read that anywhere above).

I agree with Bill.  Nice car worth high teens (~$18k) & trade-in is mid teens ($14-15K).

Nice ride.
