Besides...can you really prove without a doubt that a 72 V code was actually made....that the VIN/tag is not an error? what does galen say on it? surely a car like that has been eyeballed by the guru?




Galen is the one who lead me to the car when it came up for sale. It is the real deal. No question.

Wonder why the guru didn't grab it, hype it up and sell it?

OUCH! That's gonna' leave a mark.




No mark left here, last 6 pack car made have already been offered 2-3 times that





$45K....I would've sold it no doubt....not having the original motor really hurts it...........

Bottom line is...if you want bragging rights to a rare mopar like that 72, pony up the dough and bring it back to life.......nothing is more awesome than an air grabber opening up!

When it comes to Roadrunners this 72 6/pk surely must be considered the Pintacle of all Roadrunners ever made, the greatest-grandest last one of them all. Hopefully someone will buy this irreguarded roadrunner immediately somehow and perform its well deserved proper restoration, instead of being Garaged forever...





I don't get this line of thinking....

All this car represents(in my eyes) is just a trickling on of the 71's..I just don't get the whole mystique about it.. That doesn't really mean too much to me, frankly. To put this car in a higher category than a bad ass A12 car or a hemi car in my eyes is just silly. But that's just me and my opinion. Yes, the lack of the orig motor hurts it.

I remember a few years ago I saw a 1967 Coronet440 hemi car that was a factory car. The guy was selling it for about the same price as a 67 Hemi R/T. No one was jumping to buy it. How rare was it? How about a 1 of 1. It doesn't get any more rare than that.

On the other hand cars like the 70 Charger500 Hemi car is very special. Its a 1 of 1. Its a promo car. The vin is 100001. That type of stuff makes it for me. This 72 car is unique, but doesn't hold the same "it" for lack of a better word.

Get as much as you can for it, its a rare car nontheless.

Hmm, interesting WIW. My comments;

- to anyone questioning this car; really? it has the original FT, VIN and door sticker and has been known for a long time.

- As far as '71's vs. '72's go, sure; GENERALLY '71's are worth more but that is mostly because of the Hemi and 440-6 availability, since this car HAS the 440-6 and it is basically the SAME car as a '71 only MUCH rarer, I'd say it is worth a substantial premium over a '71 V code RR.

- Ultimate B body? ....I don't think so; I'd reserve that for a Hemi car. Can't have an "ultimate: car with the "2nd ultimate" motor. Ultimate 440-6 car? well that depends on your preference; for those that like the '71-'72 body style the best, then sure.....for those that like the '68 - '70 cars better then no.

- Yes this car is missing the #'s motor and therefore is worth less than another '72 V code RR that retains the original motor! ....I've said it before; I don't get the value that people place on the #'s motor seeing as how the block is nothing special.......Fender tag is worth 100000 X more to me. not saying the #'s motor isn't worth something, but not as much as many seem to think (to me anyway)

- I would sell the Superbird and restore this car. Plan on spending $60 - $100k

- If I was to sell it, I would auction it off with a $40k reserve. Personally I think suggestions that this car is worth $15 - $20k are crazy given it's rarety and options.

Good logic employed thru all steps there Dave. I agree with your analysis and suggested method of sale.

Very neat car. I would probably sell the Superbird and restore the '72. If you sell the '72, you will probably never be able to go back. It's a one way trip. On the other hand, if you ultimately tire of the '72, you could always buy a Superbird back.

The only down side I can see to the '72 will be having to endure the "they never made it" and "it is real?" comments. It will never be the magnet for attention that the Superbird is out in public away from a Mopar show. But the '72 is cool enough to be able to say you're the only guy on the block that has one. We seem to apply price premiums to "first" and "last" cars. This is definitely one of those special cars.

If you're not in a rush to sell, I would sell for no less than $90k.

If you had a broadcast sheet, it could sell for $120k as-is IMHO.

It may take awhile to sell, but who cares? You're not in a rush, right?

Yup, your BOTH crazy for sure. Give me a "run of the mill" chimp '70 hemicuda anyday over either one of those cars. The '72 V-code car would be a neat one to own for sure, but to me, it is still a '72 which marked the end of the excitement and the beginning of those awful generic side markers

I agree this car would be amazing restored by why does everyone seem to feel it will take double the money to restore this car over any other 72 RR?

It looks pretty solid, the 6pck parts are what I would consider the hard part to acquire are late date code 71 6 pack parts that difficult to acquire?

There might even be some 70 C-body V-code parts that could be put to better use restoring this car than some other basket case.

There is NO MARKET for those C-bodies. I say he puts them on Ebay and let the market decide like he said about the 72 v code rr. I doubt he will do it.

I don't. To be clear; I believe that a proper rotisserie, every nut and bolt, farmed out to someone that knows what they are doing, resto costs that much no matter WHAT car you are talking about. Other than some rare parts that some cars have and a +/- for rust repair, the cost to restore a car doesn't vary much from model to model.

You can "fix up" this car for less, but not restore it properly IMO. I think it's rare enough to deserve a real resto.
