Default Re: What is the value of a 1967 L79 Chevy II...

My .02. Given that a couple of '66s have gotten into six figures lately, I see no reason why this car wouldn't get there as well, $100-125K assuming the resto is no-excuses and that the provenance is bulletproof. The fact that its such a unicorn presents its own set of challenges, mostly around the fact that since they're so rare many buyers may never get past the feeling that they're being played and won't believe the proof regardless of how compelling you think it is, and the fact that while many guys remember and lusted after '66 L79s, few people even know about the '67's and therefore have never thought about owning one. So you're left a bit to the whims of how many true early Nova enthusiast/geeks have money in their pockets when you go to market, especially if its not an SS and/or outfitted in traditional musclecar colors.

On the plus side, it does appear that there are a couple of significant collections being put together with really deep pockets, and they might be willing to step up for this "unicorn".

Given the right buyers, it could certainly sell for significantly more than a '66, but I personally wouldn't count on it.
