The nicest Volare RR ever up on Ebay

Amazing to me that someone Rotisserie restored one of these in the first place, but anything is possible.   Just needs a Mustang II to race against and it'd be good to go.

I think it looks mint as it should with that kind of work involved....however I doubt they will get 20K.

It is a great color and an interesting car too.  I remember that issue of MCG that featured it.  I don't think 20k is out of line for it, he may have to be patient to find someone else who thinks that and is actually in the market for one of those but the car is too nice to give away.

Nice car, wife had a 76, /6. The car had its issues, but the body had 0 rust, anywhere.

I've known of this car for years since I first saw it at the Mopar Nats about 15 years ago.

It was owned by someone in Ohio and was a trailer queen when I first saw it ....then it was sold to somebody in Wisconsin who drove it.

It may have been  bought and sold a few times since then because I've seen it on eBay and other places. Its a shame whoever bought it drove it like this because it was treated to a brand new car restoration.  The obvious mileage, deterioration, and depreciation have added up since then.  It also had the original rallye wheels and 14" Goodyear white letter tires when I first saw it.   This car was once "new in the wrapper" and probably nicest Volare restoration at that time (maybe the best in the country) with lots of unconditional, no expense spared love and cash.   I recall specifically that there was nobody who had the Jamaica blue stripes reproduced when it was restored, so those are NOS stripes.

No market for these cars even in parts. Brother has had a NOS trunk floor and wheel houses for sale off and on for years along with other volare/aspen NOS metal. No buyers. Only thing that sold quick was a grill NIB and the road runner flare stuff.

myk

That.....actually looks pretty damn good...

Ghoste

Very limited interest for sure but I stll think 20k is not a lot of money for this car.

I wish I still had my '78 Aspen R/T yet. But talk to Jackie's daughter Shelby. She owns a '78 Super Coupe that needs restoring ;)

Agreed. $20K is right on for the level of restoration. Good to see someone driving this thing. Many times on here, we hear bout how trailer queens That aren't driven.

Wow, that is a very nice F body.  :o

$20k is probably worth the restorsion level it is at and as much as I like F bodies, I'd still have a hard time signing that check.

Pull the 318 out and shove in a 360 or a 408, and there'd be no regrets on writing that check. :coolgleamA:

What does a driver F-body go for?  Not junk, not perfect but a good car that runs.

So you guys are saying a perfect original or great restoration late 70"s B Body is also worth up to $20K?   I don't see it.

Recently there was a  BEAUTIFUL 79 Magnum GT that had 12,000 miles that was on Ebagger that sold for $12k.  I think the value probably was right on to even a little higher at 15k.   The good and bad of it, a late B body on a great day would be hoovering around $10k and I can't believe a F body would be far off of that.

I can't see this one being worth close to $20k especially with a 318.

$15k if you happen to get a buyer that has a real hard-on for the car. Otherwise, I think we're talking $12K tops.

I think its more of, if you look at the car for the work put into it...20k is cheap.

If you find someone who likes this style car, and wants a turn key zero issue ride...than 20k might not be SUCH a stretch. But i agree, a 340-360 would sure sweeten the deal.
