Early A's getting pricey

OK, I hear what you're saying, but is it REALLY ridiculous? I mean these cars are all 35-40 years old, so cars and parts aren't exactly in large supplies. Never mind the fact that production numbers on these things is soo low compared to others by Fard and Chebby. In the early 90's I seriously looked at a nice 68 cuda rag for $10,000 and thought it reasonable. The house I had sold in the mid 80s for 40,000 was just recently listed for 125,000. My loaded 86 XT sold for 16,000, all that would buy me today is a stripped out Cavalier.

Another way to look at it is if these cars were still only worth 2,000, how many people would tool up to make repro interiors, sheetmetal or trim parts?

I too long for the days when I could go the boneyard and score a bunch of parts for my "old Dart" when nobody cared about them, but now more people are realizing that this "compact" platform makes for a nice driver/racer. One positive thing is if you want that ragstang, your bank will probably accept your "old collector" vehicle as collateral :)

Putting a new lock and alarm system on my parts storage!!
