Not sure what the feeling is on 67 GTX clones with regard to value. Hagerty puts a Belvedere II 2DR HT 383/335 at $17,800, a Satellite 2DR HT 383/335 at $18,500 and a real GTX at $34,900. All three prices in #3 fair condition as per Hagerty's condition descriptions.
Does conversion of a Belvedere II or Satellite to a GTX clone by addition of a 440 engine, hood scoops, emblems, interior, trunk panel, taillight bezels and speedometer add value to the car or reduce value from the value of an original car. If it adds value, how much does it close that $17,100 to $16,400 gap between the starting car and a real GTX, condition being the same?
I am assuming most clones start as big block cars and are not derived from original six cylinder and small block V8 cars. Not sure if most clones include any suspension and brake upgrades or usually just the obvious parts.
