What could the value of one of these be worth if I tried to sell it.

It's a 1973 Dodge Charger SE, Brougham, 318c.i., Column shift.
Can anyone decode this, and tell me what it's worth.

If anyone's interested in it, just PM me. Thank's for the help!

Oh, it's not mine. I found it in the local area, I was thinking about buying it, and trying to resell and raise some money towards the one I really want. I was  hoping one of you guy's would help me determine how much a '73 is worth. The condition of it I would describe it as "Needs FULL restoral", and has significant surface rust, and a small amount of cancer rust, not running since 1983, has all original glass, if I were to buy it and restore it myself I would put all new floor pans.

Could you guy's give me an idea of how it might be worth?

It is not worth restoring a 73' SE 318 car. That is a parts car at best $700 tops.
If it were a BB Rally...well that is a entire diffeernt story. :Twocents:

I agree . . . that looks like a $500 car, especially right now. The only way your profit would be worth your time is if you got it for free or WAY cheap.  :Twocents:

well, I would not go a nickel over 500 for that car.  I bet you could go lower if you pitch it as helping the guy get it off his hands.  You could find one is way better shape and in running condition for around 2000 right now.  Then put another 2000 into it and you will have a nice car.  Thats if you are doing the work yourself

I agree with all the above. My $500.00 72 parts Charger I dragged home two years ago looks to be in better shape than that.
BTW, what's he asking?
72 Charger- Base Model
68 Charger-R/T Clone
69 Charger Daytona clone
79 Lil Red Express - future money pit
88 Ramcharger 4x4- current money pit

At first he said $600, then he gave in and said he would go as low as $500.  :eyes:
I just wish I could find a 1970 R/T around here.  :drool5:
