Can anyone help with the value of this car?
Would be awfully hard to put a sentimental value on that car! Yes, retail, 7 or 8K, but your uncle should just give it to you or at least sell it to you for what he has in it as long as you plan on keeping it.
That is exactly how we got our 69 Dart, it was my youngest step-daughters Grandparents car that they had bought new from a dealer here in San Diego. She had fond memories of this car growing up. Her uncle ended up with it for a couple of years until he found out my step-daughter wanted it. He sold it to us for $750! A 115,000 mile 69 Dart Custom /6 manual steering and drum brakes (scarey small 9" brakes). Cannot put a price on the sentimental valve of this car. I'm sure she thinks of her Grandparents every time she drives it. She leaves her Accord parked and drives the Dart all the time. It's just been on the road a short time since the 318/904/ 8-1/4 conversion and there are still some things that need to be completed and I have a difficult time getting her out of it! Love sharing every minute of this project with her!
