What do you guys think this car is worth?
/6, auto, 7 1/4 rear. Forgot to check if it has front discs or not.
A bit scaly in the trunk extensions where they meet up with the quarters, scaly on the inside of the fenders in the top corner where the fender mounted turn signals are, but overall a solid car. Very nice undercoating, mint interior, nice vinyl top with no bubbling, good glass.
The bad - car has been sitting AT LEAST 7 years without being fired up or driven, so, brakes, engine, tranny, electrical is all unknown.

The elderly man who owns it is being put into a home, and I've known him for years, and now his daughter wants it out of her yard, so is offering it to me for a very reasonable deal. But wondering what you guys think its worth.

Being from Vancouver and considering the market here (may be different on the island?) I would say it's work $2000-2500 easy but actually getting 2k for it is another story. Hell I'll give you $500 just for the seats and steering wheel! And Id probably take that rear valance as well.
 
Good to know, that's about the pricing I figured. I'll see what I can do.

And sorry Jimmy, I deff wouldn't be parting this one out.
 
Has it been repainted and/repaired any were that you can see ?
Is that the original hood insulator ?
Looks real nice for a 40 year old car, check the door jams for tape lines
under the door seals, wow!! If this is original paint this Dart Swinger has lived
most of it's life in a good garage , well worth $2.500 here in Arkansas
and if it was running and a good driver it would go for twice that.. JMO

Looks like a Dandy for sure :glasses7:
 
hard to say because the pictures aren't too great. if thats original paint then i wouldn't have a problem going as high as maybe $3000 if there is no rust and the other things check out. if its a repaint then all bets are off. you'll have to check it real close and see how much filler is in it..
 
If it's as clean as it appears to be I wouldn't bat an eye at 2 grand. If you can get it for any less I'd say do it.
 
Well, looks like a friend of mine wants to pick it up. Works for me, I don't need any more projects anyways. He wants to leave it a /6, and drive it to shows and whatnot.
I believe the car was re painted at one point, but the interior is all original. The door jambs are clean though, painted white as well. Nothing was ignored from what I can tell.
