Wow, mine's worth quite a bite more than I imagined. A car is still only worth what someone is willing to pay.

Certainly makes for interesting conversation but man do I disagree. They say most restored cars fall into Category 6. If I could find my car for sale for $21.6K I'd buy it all day long & everyone of them.

I wouldn’t put too much faith in this website. Of course my interests lie in the 71s and their convertible numbers are very inaccurate at best. They list a great number of 71 RT convertibles with 440 6 packs in them! They also list the pace cars as R/T’s and the N codes as two barrels….
we all know there were 0 JS27’s in ‘71.

Mopar valuation has always had is challenges as there are so few made and therefore so few change hands (with documentation on what the sold price is/was).
Auction values also throw off numbers.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for this car in the #2 position? Or #4 for that matter.

They don't exist for those prices do they?

Hard to believe what any of this old American Iron is worth these days. Glad I don't have anywhere near that in any of mine. I couldn't imagine trying to buy a nice complete finished car today for what they are going for.

So true. Us folks (me included) that love these cars for what they are and not for their values mostly can't afford them these days. I feel bad for fans who want to get a nice complete finished car as you mentioned, but can't afford to pay some of the prices for them.
