Are A bodies more popular than B bodies?
I have had just about every A, B, and E model. Some many of each over the decades.
Just like when the muscle car craze started way back, the more rare and expensive models bring up the value of the lesser models.
Many people love the size of the A body, me included.
The style of the early A reminds me of some of my favorite models the early B body. Just cheaper and easier too find.
Most people will buy a B body compared to an A body, dollar for dollar. I am not saying a '69 M code 440 Cuda will be cheaper to buy than a 318 '68 Satellite.
Many people get tired of the cost of B body stuff, the idiot costs of 2 nd gen Chargers, and 68-70 B bodies, even the 73-4 B bodies are getting stupid high. Decent projects are crazy and yes there are people that are still buying them (B body). But there are more decent A body projects out there than good B body projects, and the A's are hands down cheap compared.
It was not that many years ago, OK so maybe 20, 340 Dusters were not very sought after. Why? Too many good 68-70 Runners, Chargers, Bees could be had so darn cheap. By cheap lets say $5000-8000-for a restored 383 Runner. Been there done that.
