1969 Daytona on Ebay

[Richard Cranium]

I don't think the car in question is worth more than $30k tops.Now I'm not saying someone won't buy it,because history has proven that people will spend more than half of what its worth restored on a major project,and then have more into by the time they're done,and could have just bought one done and drove it now and save the years and aggravation of restoring.

That's about the figure I was thinking it was worth and the bidding is over that now. In the old days, one almost always had more into thier car than it was worth and most likely that car (as well as mine) will be no exception. Everyone got spoiled with the escallating prices (for both houses and cars) over this past decade, but those days are long gone and given the economy, high values for cars and houses just aren't coming back any time soon. Hopefully this seller understands that and the car does end up  going to a good home. It would be a damn shame for that Daytona to go back into their crappy storage to sit and decay.

You could'nt have said it better!!!!! To many guys out there clinging to the 05,06,07 BJ prices!!!!Watched my house go up in $$$$ and come down,so did'nt the cars!!!!Now we just got to get the nuckleheads that think an NOS 69 Charger grill is worth $3K to understand the current situation!!!!

I contacted the seller about going out to see the car & his response was that the car is at someone else's house & there will be no viewings, but he can send more pictures.  What's that tell you?

When they do that,crank the auction to be the highest bidder,hitting th e reserve or not,and then say you're coming to get the car,get there and say,"not as you described,thank you"walk away,then inform everyone else.Stop possible scammers right from the start!!!!!

And,ask him to send you the pics of the NOS stuff,eng bay,interior,inside trunk,and see if he comes thru with what you ask.

[Richard Cranium]

He says that me & 40 other people want pictures and I'm sure that there are several here in line for them as well.

Totally not acceptable if you are selling something and refuse to let a possible buyer come see it!!!!!! My 3x9 R/T SE was an ebay auction that totally looked fake,and had a thread here with everyone saying to stay away,fake,not real.I agreed to,but when contacting seller about it by phone conversation,I asked him specific ?'s that you could'nt answer unless the car was right in front of you.He did,and the car being from LI,it was right up the road for me,he allowed me to come see,open door,there it was,real!!! Deal was struck right then,auction ended early before anyone else had a chance to inquire.Sometimes they do work out,but you have to be ready to expect fraud!!!!

The car is very crusty. The NOS headlight buckets are fiberglass. The engine compartment is scary......

[Richard Cranium]

A total restoration is in order....

No pictures of the damage. 1970 fenders are sitting on top of one another on a shelf. There's a story to this car, but I think you'll need the jaws of life to get that story from the seller.

I gotta keep a real close eye on this one.

[nascarxx29]

What he get for a title. Most police recovered cars get a seperate serial number underhood plate and additional paperwork Wasnt it suppose to have NOS fenders parts etc .I can see the center of wing.

I think someone hit retirement age. Interesting to see what this goes for.. 

[nascarxx29]

The story I see with this car so far been fiction

[BigBlockSam]

i offered him some trades but he said no 

[69 OUR/TEA]

If it were me being interested to buy,I would insist on a visual inspection and if he refuses,wreck the auction!!!!!You don't try to sell something and deny interested parties inspection of it,IMO.
