If you can think of other sites to post the car please do so if you have time. I do not belong to all the sites and know a lot of you guys are on multiple sites. he will pay a nice commission if someone sells the car.

[ArisESQ]

just a clarification - how much does he want to sell it for?

in your first post it either looks like he wants $25,000 or $250,000 (and the car is nice enough to make that feasible)...

easily one of the nicest chevelle i've ever seen

yea, it's an insanely nice car.

Yes $250,000 for the car it is worth more but he found another car he wants bad.

[Muscle Car PWR]

When am I going to get this one for a feature?

[Aschle]

Will he take a check? :lolhit: :rockin:

[SLO_Z28]

If he can hold out another 10 months, id toss this one up at BJ. Them or Mecum seem to be the only 2 places to sell a car that high profile.

Good luck with the sale, I cant imagine ANYTHING that would make me want to sell that car.

We all could best believe if this car was $25,000 it would have sold quicker than two fat women ravashing a meat lovers pizza.:rofl:

[tones2SS]

You said it brother!! What a clean, awesome looking car. VERY NICE! Makes me want a '70 Chevelle!
How about posting it in/online @ DuPont Registry. They have some high dollar cars on there and the clientel that have the money/will to purchase a "unique" car.
GOOD LUCK!

[fesler]

This car is easy worth over $300K but the owner who owns a ton of cars wants a new one and selling this at a discounted price will do that for him. If someone is serious about buying this car make a good reasonable offer and we will go from there. Everyone that understands cars can look at the build on this and see what it’s worth.

[Raitsa]

Guys, getting a little tired of all the chatter about the price at what someone puts on their car for sale. If your interested, do so appropriately, if not move on. This knocking someones asking price is rude and insulting IMO.

That should be on the rules for the "For Sale" section:

Please do not discuss the selling prices.
Its up to the seller to set the price for the cars/items on sale, lets honour the seller´s right for this.

And as you can tell, english is not my mothertongue, i would phrase the above way better in finnish language :lol:

Offtopic ends now.

[LowchevyII]

id throw it up in the DuPont Registry. Im sure a fair amount of high profile people with the income to spend on a car of this caliber would see it and possibly be interested. just a thought :cheers:

--jeff

[monza]

Wow that is a sick car!! Some roller is going to have one hell of a nice ride.
I'd love to thrash on that thing for a while :willy: even one burn out would be soooo fun.

Please please Chris can we have one burn out video?

[ELVIS_PRESLEY]

If I had the money I'd be more than happy to pay that much for it...but I don't.

Save your money on using dupont, you'll get more scammers than potential buyers...

[Aschle]

I'm not knocking the asking price, like I stated, it likely cost more than that to build. High end cars like this have a narrow marketplace due to the bank account required to purchase such a car. Again, good luck to the seller !

[buickfunnycar.com]

Everyone's an expert on figuring what a car's worth just by looking at internet pictures:rolleyes: ...always amazes me what some people will say sitting behind a computer,sure wouldn't have the nerve to say it face-to-face,though.

[fesler]

I know most of us cant afford to buy cars like this hell if I had the money I would buy it and drive the hell out of it, let me tell you its one fun car to drive and fast. I just put it up here to get the word out I know I have about 2% of the market that can afford a car like this but it never hurts to try.

I agree, and after a clean up it will be a new rule. I've edited the thread, if you don't have something nice to add please do not post. People should be able to post for sale items without piling on a bunch of negativity. You have a right to your opinion, but our no bashing policy applies to all forums.

Thanks.

Jody:

I understand what you are saying, and I'm in no way trying to Bash someone's car, but in the interest of education, I'd like to know what makes it a $250-$300k dollar car?

It isn't bashing to ask that question is it?

I would personally think there are almost no cars that fall into this category, but I would really like to learn.

I've seen a lot of cars over $100,000, and it it easy to see how one could spend that kind of money on a number of many car you would see on this site.

To reach those levels I would expect for there to be several things going one. Specifically:

1. A very Rare Number Matching completely original car.

2) A very exclusive exotic car form Italy, Germany etc.

3) A Car of Major Historical Importance

This is an incredibly nice, beautiful, extremely well done car with the top of the line products associated with the/in the, "Pro-Touring", Style of Build.

The LS-7 is a great Engine, I wish I had one. Baer Brakes are TOTL Brakes in this area of car building. The Chevelle is always a favorite car of mine especially the '70 LS6.

Is it the hours into this build that are driving the dollar amount of the car to that level, or is this a Market Driven Price?

If it is Market Driven, who is the market?

$150-$200k will buy a lot of "Chevelle" no matter where you look, if it DOESN'T fall into the 3 things listed above, won't it?

Please don't take this as anything other than someone under educated in top of the line cars. No bashing intended whatsoever, just an education.

I certainly can't be the only one on this forum wondering.

Sincerely,

Ty O'Neal

this post isn't bashing in my opinion, and that's fine. Some of my clean up involved "innocent" posts just to complete the clean up. It's okay to ask questions.

Back on track, it's a cool car with a ton of work in it. This market is uncertain but all it takes is the right guy. One other place you may list it that from others here seems to work well (I haven't tried it) is http://www.hotrodhotline.com/classifieds/classifieds.php?a=5&b=162

[GregWeld]

I saw this at SEMA -- It's sick! Well done Chris!

Hope it sells quickly... remember guys - a rising tide floats all boats.

Jody -- IMHO there should be NO POSTS at all on For Sale forum other than asking a direct question of the seller about the item. It's FOR SALE - not for opinions... UNLESS YOU WANT TO BUY IT.:thumbsup:

It's an amazing car!

Because that is what the owner wants for it. You as a consumer can say, "well that is too much money" or "man that is a deal for that masterpiece, I'll take it". No one is being forced to buy anything and I think these questions not pertaining to the car it self ruin a guys ad in the classified section.

Maybe you should have PM'ed him and asked him to explain why the car is priced where it is. And he could choose to respond in PM or add another post in his thread if he thinks it will help sell the car. Education for the consumer and respect for the vendor go hand in hand.

The car is worth what it is because of all the time and money spent on hand building everything. This is a car that you cannot just go buy and have done everything in this car is hand built and custom to this car. It’s the way he wanted it, let’s talk just about the dash it’s all hand formed from steel took over 120 hours to fabricate not including all the paint time and components in it. Chip Foose or Rad Rides would have charged well over $500,000 to $1,000,000 to build a car like this. When you step into the custom world of car building its by the hour and the hours add up quick. You can’t build a car like this on a budget if you want everything custom and different it’s going to cost extra. Yes you can build a very nice Chevelle for $150,000 but this is what you get for that price range.

This car is nowhere near the build that the black one is and maybe by you looking at both cars you can get a better understanding where the time and money went. Just look at the dash, look at the interior and look at the engine bay you will see the difference in parts and time. I hope this will help with you understanding why builders charge what they do to build cars. I welcome the questions of why something cost what it did what we don’t like it people telling us what they cost.

[Stuart Adams]

Its only worth what someone else will pay. Cool car.

Well put Chris--I think he gets it now--I know i do ---or did!!! lol

[Nick.V70]

Chris I could only dream of purchasing this car.... Wow.

If I could make a suggestion, I feel a video of this car with all the high lights that really sets this car in the level of what it's worth would make this car something that the right person would watch a number of times till he brakes and can see himself driving it and wants it so bad he has to have it. Pics are great but a good video will take it to the next level of marketing it to the right person. It only takes 1 person to drive it away!!!! Good luck with the sale.:bow:

[tyoneal]

Because that is what the owner wants for it. You as a consumer can say, "well that is too much money" or "man that is a deal for that masterpiece, I'll take it". No one is being forced to buy anything and I think these questions not pertaining to the car it self ruin a guys ad in the classified section.

Maybe you should have PM'ed him and asked him to explain why the car is priced where it is. And he could choose to respond in PM or add another post in his thread if he thinks it will help sell the car. Education for the consumer and respect for the vendor go hand in hand.
=======================================
Thanks for the reply.

Your defense of him speaks well of him. and I would stand beside you in your efforts. Would you feel offended if someone asked to learn from your expertise? I mentioned a number of times I was "Under Educated" with this this type of build. I took the time to reference my previous understanding regarding car value (Written in Red) as to not waste anyones time in explaining something that was not being asked.

Maybe I should of PM'ed him. Wouldn't that destroy any educational possibilities for other people? Isn't everyones education of value for the Hobby? We all come from different backgrounds of education, age and where we live.

It's difficult for some people to ask questions when they see other get jumped on for doing it. None of us want to be a "Black Sheep" on this or any other forum dealing with things they love.

I thought my letter was written from a very subordinate position, so that it wouldn't make anyone think I was attempting to attack, defame, cut down or bash anything Chris or one of his customers decided to do with their build.

I have been a collector of many things over the last 25+ years, and my eduction on those subjects for value based on the items I outlined in Red. Rare Books, Manuscripts, Firearms etc. all work on these principals. The cars that I have, I assessed value based on those items.

That said, I know their are other types of Value I have not been exposed to. It's the olds saying, "The more you learn, the more you realize how little you actually know".

I'd be surprised if you haven't heard this. I have a pretty decent education, but I certainly don't know a fraction of what there is to know. This type of build is one of those things. If I have embarrassed Chris or his customer, I will be perfectly willing to apologize as no insult or malice was intended whatsoever.

Further, by answering the question(s) I would think that more people would be able to appreciate the car for what it is, not for something they think it is. Thus, people like myself would be more knowledgeable in the future, and could tell people about this car with a enhanced knowledge of appreciation and value.

I have spoken with Chris in the past and emailed him. He is a first class guy through and through. I would never have a problem doing any business with him, nor recommending him to someone.

I hope when you read this it will calm any ideas you have about my intent. The car is beautiful, and I figure this opens a perfect stage for Chris or his customer to really tell us about this car.

I hope this is not taken from this thread, as I wouldn't want any bad feeling from anyone and especially Chris to be had towards me.

Respectfully,

Ty O'Neal

I agree with you, and hopefully he would/will have two "Right Guys", where it could at least be purchased for it's true value, well above the asking price.

=====================================
Hello again.

Your quote, "Because that is what the owner wants for it.", surely you don't want people just saying that about such a beautiful build, as it gives the car and the person who built the car, no credit for their efforts.

I'm sure it is priced at that level because there is a reason for the price not just some arbitrary number he pulled out of the air. I don't believe Chris would do that, nor do his business practices indicate such a thing.

Do you think I am wrong? (Not to say I can't be, but in this case I think it is hopefully obvious)

Again,

Respectively,

Ty O'Neal

It’s the way he wanted it, let’s talk just about the dash it’s all hand formed from steel took over 120 hours to fabricate not including all the paint time and components in it. Chip Foose or Rad Rides would have charged well over $500,000 to $1,000,000 to build a car like this. When you step into the custom world of car building its by the hour and the hours add up quick. You can’t build a car like this on a budget if you want everything custom and different it’s going to cost extra. Yes you can build a very nice Chevelle for $150,000 but this is what you get for that price range.

This car is nowhere near the build that the black one is and maybe by you looking at both cars you can get a better understanding where the time and money went. Just look at the dash, look at the interior and look at the engine bay you will see the difference in parts and time. I hope this will help with you understanding why builders charge what they do to build cars. I welcome the questions of why something cost what it did what we don’t like it people telling us what they cost.

Chris:

Thanks you for your response.

There is absolutely NO COMPARISON between the two. These two examples are perfect, especially like you said "in the engine compartment". Holy Moly!

The interior as well is incredible. It's a beautiful build without question, and Black for me shows the quality of the body treatment, and paint work that went into it.

I have never questioned the good builders. I sold products to the Big Three years ago, there is a tremendous difference between an assembler and an artisan. Fortunate for us, the people here are the latter.

Thanks again for the comparison.

Best Regards,

No problem and I don’t have any issues with these kinds of questions. I figure the best way to show someone why a car is worth what it is is to show pictures of two different cars in that price range so you can see for yourself what sets them apart. Glad to help out :cheers:
