1966 vs 1967 worth/value

[larry linkous]

I have a Sunfire yellow 1966 big block 427 425 HP roadster with the correct motor in the garage, not in car, running a LS 6 now, side pipes, Kelsey Hayes knock-offs, very nice Driver,with the orginal Protect-o-plate. I am looking at a 1967 Maroon roadster with the correct 427 400 Hp motor in it and the orginal tank sticker still on the tank, side pipes also and a real nice driver. Which will be worth more in the long run?? I would have to sell the 66 to but the 67. 66 has a little more motor and options but a 67 is a 67. What do you guys think. Thanks Larry

I think beauty is the eyes of the beholder! That's why they make things different. Go with the one YOU like.

Larry,
Terry is right. According to the June 2003 issue of Old Cars Price Guide, the two cars are withing $2500 of one another in value. (Condition 1, and all other add-ons being equal).

Considering that the '66 does not have the original motor installed in the car and running, I would expect that you would have to sell it at a discount (from book value), this may make your out-of-pocket expense far greater than the $2,500 between the two cars.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Gene
