I hope some one can help me. I currently have a 1969 camaro housing and was thinking of maybe selling it. But Have no clue on what the going price is. Can someone tell me what I can maybe get for it. It's mainly the housing with drums. thanks for any help

Depending on the date code and other numeric attributes, as well as it condition and/or modifications... it could be worth up to $2k +... to the right buyer.

But... for the most part, 12 bolts in an unmodified condition and clean have been running right around $1500.

You really have to look at the buyer and what they are really looking for at the time. It can be priceless to the right buyer looking to finish a restore. Like I stated... the housing and date code numbers can make it worth a whole bunch more than just the average... albiet, OEM 12 bolts dont grow on trees any more...

I would love to just dump my 12 bolt... but since its out of my 67 L30/M20 chassis and the fact that its a very early (meaning - pre radius rod) L30/M20 12 bolt housing... it could make the perfect compliment to someone that is restoring an early 67. Especially if its an L30/M20 with the right date code. It has the possibility of adding thousands to its value.

Thru the middle to late 90's... I probably sold a dozen 12 bolts for $800. And recently I see the housing alone go for that.

wow thanks, I had told him if he wanted it for 400 was a good price. His reply was too much....this was without even knowing this, he didn't look at the dates or anything, he just asked me if I wanted to sell it after he had seen it in my garage. But thanks for the help
