Well, I'm getting close to posting my 68 for sale on Ebay. I sold my 70 TA back in May and was pleased with the selling price and overall experience. Factoring in the U$ exchange rate, I did well with that sale.
I'm thinking though that the current Ebay prices are a bit light. There are some cars that I am surprised are not going for a bit more in their respective auctions. Is the market soft right now?
Thanks,
Mark

I think overall car prices are low right now. hoping for a come-back in a year or two.
Too bad you are selling, those are nice cars!
But I see you picked up a new toy...
Great to hear from you, and good luck with the sale. Keep us posted.

Great to hear from you too !! It's been a while but I do check in from time to time to catch up on the latest gossip. Good to see there are still some 'old timers' on the forum.
Yes, it was tough selling the 70 TA but it was time for someone else to take it to the next level. I had amassed every part the car needed that couldn't be sourced from a catalogue and included that with the sale so the buyer can make it 100% correct. It already had the original 4-speed drivetrain.
And I've joined the dark side: Mopar !!!
I drag my 2017 Challenger Hellcat and have the 66 Coronet as a cruiser. I love the Firebird and my wife and daughter (who don't get the Mopar appeal) want me to keep it but I just don't have the room. It needs to go to a good home. I'd share some pics but I see Photobucket is now charging for 3rd party hosting.

Light is not the word for it... Just redid a 350 from the ground up not frame off though.. I tried my best to keep it all stock but I had a full three speed conversion set up (all collected Pontiac stuff)staring at me and (Stella) was just asking for it.....Tough to see those prices but when you look right at them let's see what is costs to get the cars right? Well any way The longer it takes to sell it the longer You get to drive it....Ron

I recently purchased a 350 HO car and it was great.... The same people that were using eBay as a price guideline never really bothered to look at it. My good find, This car is tremendous, I knew all the history of the car, the owner purchased it new. A little cleaning some new parts she runs and shifts like a clock, and yes got that working too. That 350 HO has some serious snot..... I payed for the value in the car not just the cars value, I guess what I'm saying is that some cars maybe more expensive,but call the guy go see the car ,talk to the owner, EBay does not reflect that.... I guess car flippers go by price car drivers and owner should go on more than price....
