This car was professionally restored as a concourse restoration which is nut and bolt restoration over a span of 10 years to complete and finished in 2020 by Finer Details out of Indiana. N Code with full exact spec period correct 426 Hemi engine and all all correct Hemi body specific adjustments of which 990 miles on restoration. 3.55 Dana Rear End. Every detail of this car has been restored and refinished down to smallest of detail. Trophies in pics for validation.

Wow. Seems overbuilt for the neighborhood.

I'd think it would be hard to get over $100-110K.

Thinking this 383 4-speed car would sell at $70K to this level? Most 383 4spd's aren't done this nice. Then add $40k for Hemi parts (no labor) minus valuable 383 parts.

The resto with parts and buy-in might be $179K. But it's all about what someone would pay for it. SEMA type custom cars with 1/2 million plus dollar builds typically take even bigger hits.


I was thinking less than 100k, but then I dont follow E bodies that close either. A friend of mine owns a real R code 1970 hardtop. And I told me 2 years ago he had offers in the 200-250k range ( car isn't for sale btw )

I know of 2 separate hemi cuda vert clone sales, and they were both in the 125 - 135k range. And in pictures both looked like decent / well done cars ( one 1970 and one 1971 )


Honestly thinking it will be hard get over the 6 figure mark. But just doing math with 383 4-spd quality resto $70K selling price (cost to resto more). Then plus hemi, 18 spline, Dana, k-member....at $40K in fairly correct parts. Maybe $30K
