I think maybe mid $20s
The guy was asking $45k I didn't think it was worth it.

My guess is 32.5K at B. Jackson
24-25K value.

I'd say 35k at the auction.
Street value around 30k

Here I go with opinions, I may regret , looking close, around here it's a $7500.00 project car with some good parts.He will maybe double that
at B.J.'s I guess $15000.00 , 20's a crime Jimmy saidit
No offense but show me a '69 Camaro RS/SS for $7500.. one that runs and drives and doesn't look like it was pulled out of a lake.
You show me a car like that for $7500 that I can buy and I will buy it and pay you $500 commision.

Although, looking at the pics I would say he would be lucky to get $25k for it on the street.. maybe $30k at BJ. Some of the stuff on it looks pretty dated and the color is .. well.. interesting.

I'm getting "OJ'ed" (killed) on the fantasy bidding.

At least they could have cleaned up the underhood stuff a bit... looks like a mismatched, jumbled mess. Chrome, aluminum, paint, wires everywhere. Needs tidying up. Even the inner fenders and core support don't match the outer paint color.

Minus 5k.:thumbsup:

I agree, 20-25K on the street is all she's worth around here but being a restored numbers matching car with the RS option & 4 spd will probably bring about 35K at BJ despite the engine compartment needing work. Heck, if the junk from Monster Garage was bringin' around 7-9K (and you can't even license those) then think what a decent 69 Camaro would bring.
And if I could get that car for 7500, I'll take 2 please!!

I can't believe it went for $39,000 I'm in shock they must of had the hood closed the whole time.
to me it needs to be totally stripped and start over.

Did the buyer look like a collector of all things baby blue?

I am looking for the barf smilie. That should have never topped $20k. IMO.

what strikes me is all the BS that about no expense spared matching numbers.... i mean it is a rebuild of the engine that happened to be in the car... a crossram intake with edelbrock carbs and enough missmatched chrome stuff to get you wondering if he didnt rob a partsstore with the lights off...
but for that money hes the one to do the laughing.. i think its a shame that who ever bought the car got screwed ..

WELL every one whom bids sees the car as long as they like in the field of cars , hoods dont have to be open on block that really is for viewers on tv , i think the mismatched stuff failed and not everybody wants baby blue ....alot of work to change color when there is anothe 100 camaros to choose from on the block .

I knew it was a candy coated TURD, but I got my mouth slapped for saying it.
How much will the next sucker pay? You bid yet S.R.?

Who's S.R.?
me?
Don't get upset just because I didn't agree with your $7,500 appraisal. I would buy those cars all day long at that price.

The last 1st Gen that I saw for around $7,500 (running or not) around here looks like THIS (http://www.countryclassiccars.com/spcars_208.htm) . If I could buy that one for even $10K I would be all over it :yes: .

I'm very critical when judging the quality of workmanship that's been performed on a car. This is what I see in the photos posted on this site.
The car is said to be number matching restored. Number match maybe.
restored not even close.
Underhood-medium blue paint in many wrong places. Wiper system gone.
inner fenderwell bolts missing both sides. Non original colors everywhere.
hacked up wiring & cheap chrome everywhere. hood not fit to close properly
Interior- console pieces missing. Hang on gauges. Blue overspray in door
jams on latches, lite switches and kick panel trim. Doorlock buttons gone.
Outside- Front bumper twisted and bolts missing. Motorcycle horns shining thru grill. Headlite doors tacky. big dent in right rear lower corner. Back
window trim hammered & loose. Back bumper is lumpy and wavy. 6 or 7
holes chiseled into upper trunkseal channel. Inside trunk is a mess. Blue &
spatter paint on latch. Blue wheel tubs. That's what I can see from 1500
miles away. The cost for me to do a quality restoration on every thing I've
pointed out would be 30,000.00$ minimum. If this is the kind of work You
Guys are willing to accept at todays Shop Rates,I'm working way too hard
to please. Sorry, that's the way I see it.You don't have to aggree.

I don't think anyone here thought the car was a concours restoration. The point was $7500 doesn't buy much anymore in a first gen, so even with all the flaws you pointed out that is a very low appraisal.
