Think I'll pass but maybe there is someone out there who thinks it is worth it.

It's gorgeous, maybe the nicest one there is...but 55 large is nuts, I think.
At that kind of money, there's a lot of cars out there, unless ya GOTTA have a '67 VIP.
Not sure it would pull that kind of $$$ even at an auction full o' drunks.

What’s an “Elite Survivor”? The ad was too long for me, but I skimmed it. At the end it mentions an auction. Is the seller unclear about how CL works?

It is a neat car, but I would guess the value is around $30k to the right buyer. $55k is cuckoo.


'67 is an abbreviation of 1967
67' is an abbreviation of 67 feet
They are not interchangeable.

Seller has it on ebay too. Looks like he just did a 'copy and paste' of the ebay listing.......

I also want to know when the term elite survivor came to. Hopefully the corvette guys haven't trademarked it already....

Not “Elite Survivor”

Replaced:

Exhaust
Hoses
Belts
Paint on engine looks freshened
Brakes

No pics of undercarriage

Nice $20K car for “someone else to own”

Interesting 4-door C-body to look at in someone else’s garage

The quad stacked headlamps are tough looking.

They are?

I keep the entire front end properly greased, baby.

He's overly enthused by this.

As clean as can be, it truly looks and smells like a new car

"smells like new" is the single biggest lie told by sellers who are selling an old car. No, it doesn't smell like new.

They were replaced with high end modern radials

Why not just tell us what size/brand of tires they are?

keep the works supple and lubricated.

Surprised he didn't also use the word "moist" here.

Guy sounds like a pain in the ass, though reading through the BS, he did give a really thorough description of his $20k car.


Earning every penny of that moderator paycheck.

Dealer air and no power windows. I wouldn't want it at any price...

That is what I like to call Bowtie Bozo Flipperspeak...

As far as the price goes, it's one of those cost vs value things. It's no more worth $55k than a 71 Hemi 4spd Cuda ragtop is worth however many million$ the last one sold for but sold it did.

If a top of the line Plymouth Cbody in unrestored original showroom condition is on your just gotta have list, then you're going to have to pay for it. Probably less of them on the planet than Hemi Cuda ragtops.

I’m not seeing why anyone would walk past any of the many 55k mopars you could own and buy this. I’ll take a guess that the guy in my that still has Ohio plates on the car bought it for what it’s really worth, which is under 30k, and it trying to flip it after a thorough deep cleaning.


I want my fair share

Same car, new price....I don't understand prices of old cars. It's a beautiful automobile but desirable? I gotta find a new hobby.

LOL laugh

Car is gone from both CL and Ebay now. Good riddance to that seller.
