hello all I am new to this site I am currently restoring a 68 Dodge Charger that I picked up after sitting for many years. The gentleman i purchased the car from has several other rare mopars i am thinking about buying to resell. the one I am most interested in is a 1973 Roadrunner GTX in the original twisted yellow paint jobs with minimal damage to the passenger quarter panel still in the original paint with the original striping just really weatheredthe interior is complete the car ran when parked 15 to 20 years ago it isn't numbers matching car I verified the VIN tag defender tag what would this car sell for on eBay

My brother has a 74 GTX that is in worse shape than that one, recently appraised at $11000.00. It was broken down by options to determine how rare it is, bench seat, colom shift, twisted yellow, etc.. His is 1 of 69, do some more digging and if you can get it to run that would help.

Please, please, please! Grammar & punctuation lessons are needed here! Is there a question hidden somewhere in all this, if so, what is it?

In my opinion and experience, a car is only worth what some one is willing to pay. Don't let the Barrett-Jackson and Mecum auctions get any ideas into your head, I personally think that 73 might go for 7500 on a good day, unless I'm missing something. There was a decent 73 roadrunner, running and driving, on dallas craigslist that sold for around 7, but the one you are looking at is more rare, and needs a lot of work to be a nice car. If you really want to buy and resell it on ebay, throw it on there with a reserve and see where it gets.

Don't quote me on any of this, car could be worth a lot more than 7500, or a lot less for that matter.


Don't forget, that's ebay prices. Cut the price in half, if not more, to some one not buying through ebay.

- Determine the #1 restored condition value.
- Subtract the cost of everything it would take (parts & labor) to get it to a #1 condition.
- The remaining dollar amount is what it is worth.

Using my personal restoration experience as a basis, I would put that car at a $2,500 bargain buy. If you were lucky enough to find the person who's 'gotta have it' and has deep pockets to restore it, you MIGHT double your money.

I apologize for the punctuation and grammar errors I was in a big hurry when I wrote it out. I am just trying to help this older fellow clear his property. Other cars are a 67 coronet r/t shell a 69 road runner shell a Plymouth "gold duster" and lastly a 383 four SPD 70 road runner

I don't blame you for that!

A roadrunner yes but I'm sure it was not a GTX 440

Unless they started recently I believe they don't make reproduction quarter panels for 73 or 74 GTX Roadrunner..

With out much detail on the car I'd say 3k they used to be cheap to restore but prices have been driven up so I'd say resto on it doing it your self would be at least 15k-20k so not much meat left you might get 4-5 for it on eBay so good luck but if it doesn't sell I wouldn't complain that's a cool car ,I never buy one to flip unless I like it because it might not sell them your stuck with it any pics and info on the rest

I can get the damage fixed and repaint restripe and make it a daily driver for less than 2k

Wow. You can do the work, or have it done for less than $2K? Unless it ends up 'looking like a cheap fix', that would be a no-brainer...

 

[garrett1308]

If you have pictures of it, I'd love to see the 70 roadrunner he has.

73-74's were all RoadrunnerGTX models.
