and if someone is so anal it's not that difficult to take a restored car apart and change the color.




Really - only another $15,000-$20,000 -IMO

Its not as simple as pulling off a few trim pieces to completely strip and refinish (change color back) on a "rotissere" restored car. Everything from suspension to drivetrain to interior to trim has to be removed in order to do it correctly. Not to mention the fact that you are doing an interior color change as well as mentioned.

The people potentially looking at purchasing a 69' 500 are a select calibre of buyers; Not your average Mopar person. Someone that is going to spend the $$$ to purchase a 69' 500 is more likely purchasing the car because of its rariety and as a collector, not a daily driver.

While I'm not a huge fan of Green cars, they do have a significance in the history of all Muscle Cars. Id personally sell the car as a project (as Scott mentioned above) take the money and the money you would be spending on the paint work and the rest of the restoration and buy the car (wing car) you really want in the color you really want.
