Ok I'll bite. And this is without ever seeing it in person so I don't know the paint quality, etc.

If it was just a car by some guy or shop and done well, I'd say $100-125k.

But since it has Stielow pedigree, I'll say $150-175k.

Barrett Jackson? $80k to 225k . :D

You forgot about a book that was based on the mule. Man ld love to have this one. Hard to believe Charlie would turn loose of it.

I'd be glad to come by and drive it around if that's all that's bothering you.... The money part can't possibly be a real issue...:G-Dub:

Red Witch brought good money at BJ. I bet the Mule would do more still considering the car is right at 10 years old.

no don't do it, sell some of them 1930's buckets you have back there. :G-Dub:

Such a gamble to take it to auction, but im sure there are at least 2 guys that just have to have it.

I'd say $200k. It is the most influential pro touring car of all time!

I say sell it to Greg, he needs a back-up for his back-up race car!:lol: I am thinking 150k to 175k.

I'd have to agree, it's the car that many of us are here because of. How much I have no idea, I'd say with its history it should bring more than any pro-touring car that has sold before it???

After watching a gazillion hours of BJ and Mecum, i'd say 150 to 175.

Somewhere in the build book there is a pic of it in GM's design center when they were designing the current Camaro.

Totally agree. This car deserves to be sitting in a prominent museum somewhere. It changed my mind about cars on so many levels.

That's what sparked the thought. Might be worth investigating. In my brief scan of the cars in there it certainly appears worthy of placement. :thumbsup:

GLWS Charley, this is still my favorite car regardless of all the newer builds Steilow has done. I'd think you should get $200k for it.

So THIS is why Jody created this forum.......

Seeing the Mule for sale would be tough to put a price on. Whoever owns it would have to consent not to change it. They become the caretaker.

It would be like Sullivan selling Cheeze Wiz or seeing Chicane for sale. $200K+ private sale to someone who respects the car

but who has THAT kind of money and loves Mark's builds? Oh wait- you already own it Charlie. :)

It would make a great late Friday afternoon/early evening b-j Scottsdale placement. heck a not near as nice 69 brought $140 on Friday this past year. and it was silver.

Actually, there was a price put on Cheeze Wiz in the past, the car never sold. It wasn't alot of money, but it depends if you have a buyer that is interested in buying. There is lot of factors, but SW's has this post in the past that is right on the mark.

So I have been having conversations with serveral guys about values of our cars lately. I have been doing alot of research lately because I have been looking for a nice 2nd gen Camaro to buy. I am after a nice car with great paint/body that has a LS motor, mini tubbed ect. Anyway, I have found several cars on different sites. This got me thinking about what the value of my personal PT/Muscle cars that I own. Looking around E-bay, there are some cars that are simply way too over priced.. Chris was just looking at the
'69 in Canada that the guy wanted $250k, then I saw one in Dallas for $275k.. :_paranoid.. In today's market, those numbers are going to be very hard to get. I am currently building a car at DSE with a buddy of mine that is going to be over $300k. If we decided to put it on the market right after it's done, it would be hard to get a cash buyer to pay more than $150-175k, that's being realistic. When you build a certain car, it's your personal taste. Another person may not like the color, wheel selection you chose ect. These factors make resale harder, especially on the higher price cars. Bottom line is, you build/buy what you want in your budget and enjoy the hell out of it!

Scott,

So if 3 of us move to your county and somehow you persuade us to vote for you in 2016, you would win by a huge margin, right? ;)

We'd be in the victory celebration/BBQ pics too I hope.
