The reason I posted it here was because I thought that it was a helluva deal. No one I knew was interested in the car or it would have been a done deal as soon as I saw it.
29,500 was CHEAP!!! LOVE the originals ![]() ![]() How about some more pics of the suspension and engine compartment... I am sure others would love to see the original details as well!! ![]()

The money is made on the buy...
I would have liked to had the car... just don't like the fact that it was not a L78. The deals are still out there it just takes looking for them.

The money is made on the buy... [/ QUOTE ] Correct in this case. If the car had been bought for $10K and was now being offered for $20K, would there still be the same concern about the current asking price? If the car is not worth $39.5K, it won't sell.

I agree with Bill. Whats wrong with profit???
Some people feel that trading muscle cars should be a non profit endeavour. You can ask whatever you want for it. Market will dictate the selling price. I feel that the original ones in excellent condition are the ones that will maintain their value and increase the most over time.Anyone can open their checkbook and have a car restored but they're only "original" once. Good luck selling it! |

-------I also adamantly agree with Bill P. The owner has the absolute right to ask any price desired. Market will figure it out, and I suspect, if the car is what has been stated, then price may be market correct........Bill S

[/ QUOTE ] There are no Deals on Rip Bay when it comes to musclecars otherwise you'd see the ads in the local auto trader and newspapers. People watching BJ Auction who have cars now think that their car is a gold mine. Ya, I agree that some are. But I wouldn't buy a stick of gun there, never mind a musclecar site unseen. I tried to buy a 70 SS 396 Chevelle off this guy and he mentioned BJ, and how these cars are like wine that they just keep going higher in price. Ya, I don't dought that, but when I talk to other guys, they want over 50k for a driver 350hp velle when they are in the under 40k range today. And the car is a driver. And I know, it's a sellers market. Read this post and tell me I'm wrong about Ebay. ![]() BTW, nice '69 and a good price if I was looking for a '69. It's tempting to go for a '69. I'm in this hobby for the cars and not the profit. http://www.chevelles.com/forums/showthread.php?t=138939
