Example of what "driver" Barracudas are selling for
i'm glad that my posting has generated a bit of discussion. again it was not my purpose to sell anyone on "soneff's" or the cars he has in stock right now. i only wanted to show some cars that you can buy for $15k or less. i look at barracudas on ebay and autabuy and a couple of other sites almost every day to see what's being sold. sometimes i run across really good deals and sometimes the sellers are asking way too much for their car. the guy here on FABO who bought his 68 fastback barracuda 318 automatic for $5k and drove it home is a perfect example of good deals still out there. when i started collecting my cars i set a limit of $20k to have in each car. given that decent driver barracudas sell for $15-20k, i thought that would be a reasonable upper end - especially if i ever wanted to (or had to) sell the cars. like many guys here have noted, cars are worth what someone out there wants to pay for them. but for young guys or someone just wanting to get into the hobby, i think it's helpful to talk about "reasonable" amounts of money for old mopars. some cars have been advertised at prices that are just way beyond what they are worth. i hope posts like this one will help potential buyers (and sellers) to pay a reasonable amount of money for the car they really want to have.
