If it is a real car it is worth a bunch of money. Sadly, they are like 69 Z/28s - there are 10x more now, than there were originally built in 1969. Thankfully PHS has the paperwork to verify if it is a real one or a poser.

17 produced in 1971 all 455HO's.
108 in 1969 (only 5 RAIV ragtops built, all the rest ar RAIII).
168 in 1970 (only 18 or 19 RAIV and 3 455 ragtops built, all the rest are RAIII)

Properly restored with orignal parts, they are six-figure cars all day long. RAIV versions are whatever the market will bear. 1971 ragtops are way up there, too.

Kind of like the price variations in COPO cars when comparing a "restored" car versus a "correctly restored" car with original drivetrain and bulletproof paperwork.

Very rare to find a RAIV car with its original engine - they did not take kindly to being over-revved.
