: Is this a reasonable deal?
Iam looking for a 70 ss 454 ,I found one that caught my eye at this site http://www.classicmusclecars.com/cgi-bin/swrm/det.cgi?id=27142364&bl=m-;;k-chevelle;;nhs-;;status-Available;;sb-
What do you think would be a fair price for this car and what do you think this car could do 0-60 in, iam not savy when it comes to mechanics so any help would vey much be appreciated.
Thanks BudW
d1_bradley Nov 5th, 04, 6:50 PM Looks really nice. Like he said no build sheet but its not $100k either. So its most certainly a clone and probably in the $35 to $40k range if its rust free, as for 0-60, depends on who is driving and tires and and and..... Will it outrun a new Vette? No, but its way cooler.
Don_Lightfoot Nov 5th, 04, 7:33 PM Hi Bud, welcome to Team Chevelle graemlins/thumbsup.gif
This appears to be a well restored automobile and the colors are "right up my alley" :D . I am not the ultimate "numbers" freak so I don't get hung up too much on that stuff. However, numbers and documentation (or lack thereof) all relate to value.
If I was looking for a sharp 1970 SS454 and didn't care about documentation or future value I would have no problem buying this one for $40K and just having some fun with it. If part of that fun means 0-60 blasts then I would expect to do that possibly in the 5-6 second range.
DaleM Nov 5th, 04, 8:38 PM Pretty color combination. More money than I have to spend but it appears to be pretty nice.
71elkySS454 Nov 5th, 04, 9:03 PM Whats the deal with the wheels on it?
RC 70 Nov 5th, 04, 9:25 PM Car looks nice. If it really does have the factory 6500 redline tach and correct engine could be a score. Would like to see some more pics and have a little more info though.
Some incorrect details including the SS wheels that appear to have been chromed and are without trim rings.
ACES-70 Nov 5th, 04, 9:53 PM If its done right, and is rust free,, you would be hard pressed to build the car for that price, the only thing I would have to loose would be the Oldsmobile wheels,,,
66 MYSTERY CHEVELLE Nov 5th, 04, 10:01 PM I have to agree with my brothers here... Last I checked.. they are no longer making these cars ;) and this one is purty sharp.. for me, all I would need to seal the deal is underbelly shots.. if it is done clean under there.. I'd say $40K to $43k is in line.. QUALITY, QUALITY, QUALITY.... is what I look for..if the numbers are right....BONUS! graemlins/thumbsup.gif
