Thinking of selling.. Thoughts ?

[jprather]

Hi everyone, I'm thinking of selling my 72 SSP. but i really don't know how to price it?? I know what I have in it, but values are all over the place these days

its a 72 Satellite Sebring Plus, in GY4 ( honey dew ) it is original paint, with exception f the call out hood ( perfect match though), factory big block ( 400 ) it now has a built 440 w 727 trans ( i have the #'s matching engine in good shape), long tube equal length headers and electric dumps, swapped out the 8 1/4 2:45 to 8 3/4 2:55( have the stock rear end also ), bucket seats w/ console and slap shifter, rally dash, factory a/c car ( a/c upgraded to original air group ) new white canopy top, new carpet, front seats reupholstered, rest of the interior is original. this is a RUST FREE car, i have checked everywhere.. 0% rust!
I have had it for 13 years, i have now turned my attention to a 72 charger. I am not sure if I can ask this on here, but realistically, what range should I start at ?
I can find 318 ssp's but few factory big blocks.. this is a matching #'s car, i am the 2nd owner.
I have reinstalled all of ssp trim, not shown in last 2 pic below. thoughts ??

FYI, there was a Japanese guy here a few weeks or couple months ago all hot and bothered to buy one of these.

I’m not a fan of that body style but that is a nice car. The color is rare by todays standards. So many people change colors to something more flashy but that just looks fantastic in a color that was much more common then than now.
I’m with you… I don’t like to give anything away but assessing value can difficult.

 

[jprather]

the color grew on me, when i bought it, RR or GTX clone was my idea, but, it was so nice and original, i couldnt bring myself to do it!, cut the paint and waxed it. looks great for 50+ year old paint

The 72 400 should be in the range of the mythical HD 400.
I know..( but it's #s matching!).

It's a nice car. I would guess if you actually want to sell it somewhere around $22-25k with the original parts.. If someone HAD to have it cause of them liking the original color and original rust free body I could see it going up a little. Start at 28k I know you could NEVER build it for that.

 

[Ron H]

Each their own, I always liked that body style and would prefer it to a 72 Charger. Your car is special, lower production with nice options. This is a rough recall, but I’ve read values on many cars. BB’s tend to snag $8 to $10 grand more than SB’s – again this is rather loose and doesn’t include the originals actual GTX, Roadrunners. Cars having factory big motor option compared to SB’s.

Not just any Japanese guy... He was a top Fuel funny car driver here in the US...

Your easiest choice is to sell it to me really cheap. But seriously, after all the garbage and rot-bucket crap I've been seeing here lately with idiotic asking prices posted by crack-heads, that's a nice car ! If I had the room, I'd be interested.

Looks like a nice solid car...

since it's not #s matching (currently)
just that you have the #'s matching available,
not in/on the car now, that could take a hit in perceived values

I like that color
to me a 440 isn't a deal killer
I'm not in the market either

Maybe more, but;
I'd have a best wild-*** guess to the right person $25k to $30k
with all the taken-out org.#s matching parts

 

[YY1]

The Japanese guy said who he was a couple of times in his posts but there was some communication issues.

 

[SteveSS]

I'm going to have the same pricing problem soon with the '71 Charger 500. Where did you find that chart YY1?
