how much for a 70 dart?
The drive line alone is worth 2K... Priced complete core 340's, a body 8 3/4 and complete 4 speed set ups (if it's a 4 spd) lately????
I'd say a fair value is anywhere from 3-6K depending on condition of the body and options. If it an impact color that makes it more desirable as well. If it needs every panel replaced, obviously, on the lower end.
If you can get pics and a look at the fender tag, post up the info/pics. I have a 70 340 swinger as well and always interested in what's out there.
And try and have him give you a price... you can always look like the good guy by giving him more than he's asking... Just a thought and it really works. If he gave you a $500 price you could buy it for the $500, then float him an additional amount later, $1500-2000, because you found out the car was worth more. You get a good baseline car, your buddy thinks you're great for squaring up to a more reasonable level. All about Karma... All sorts of ways to get him a fair amount for the car. Let him price it first.
