Just picked up day after Thanksgiving. No engine, no interior, but good frame rails and pretty solid body. Floor has been replaced but is questionable.

The car came with a few extras so that was considered for the purchase, plus it was only a few miles from my house and a friend hauled it for me so I saved in transport costs I figure all that counts for value. All I will say is I think I got a fair price for it considering how solid the frame rails and body is considering i live in the rust belt.

I wanted to revisit this post, I was asked if I would share what I paid for the car and was hesitant because I was thinking I might have overpaid. So I wanted to just put it out there and see what you all think. I had mentioned it came with some extras but did not list them. Here's what I got with it, a new floor pan (still need rear footwell pans) new carpet, some interior door panels custom made with the colored roadrunner embroidered on it, all the seat belts, some seats from a chevy Vega (yuk) 2 seats from a Cuda maybe if you can call them seats, no mounting brackets or seat tracks, basically frames and foam, a new grill and headlight bezels made out of country and are plastic ( but they look sharp) front and rear fiberglass bumpers, a starter, a new 22 inch aluminum radiator, the rear seat that's actually in pretty good condition, and a ratty center console. The frame rails are in good shape and the quarters and fenders are pretty solid, need some work but not replaced. No engine but a 727 for a small block. The car was less than 20 miles from my house so transport was done by a friend. Seller wanted 10 but we ended up at 9 grand for it. How did I do?

I think you did well. I wouldnt use a few of the extras but they have value to sell. Biggest thing is it was close to home so you could inspect it and know the actual condition and its a real 69 R R and they arent on every corner these days.
Good price, and I didn't ask to create controversy as some might say...I wouldn't pay that or worth 10x that etc, was truly interested as I'm constantly looking for a Plymouth that era and was asking for personal perspective while hunting.

Can you get a driver quality 69 RR for $50k today ?
I'm not sure if you can but if you can that means you have $41k to spend to get there. Nice find. I think you did okay. Good luck with it.

Yes I don't think I like the repo grill, I like the metal one I have although it's been painted black and so were the headlight bezels, like to get the paint off them. Being close was defiantly a bonus, not like I can go out west and bring one back. I just happened upon it while riding my motorcycle and had to knock on the door, glad I did.

That's a good point and yes you can't touch one for less than 40 it seems. Thanks.
