value of 66' coupe

[somethingspecial]

I just found two 66' coupes out in the weeds, one, the best is straight as can be, with no detectible cancer. 6 cyl. with auto. Needs new interior, the owner says it runs, just needs some TLC. the interior need work, still has the original spare with plaid trunk mat. Clean little car. the second is a parts car. 8 cyl. C code. auto. everything is still there. The guy wants 3k for both. I know 68' values, any ideas on the 66' coupes and value. Thanks, Mike

If the first car is as straight and rust free as you say, I'd say offer 2500 and see what he says. If you want a good coupe, sounds like an opportunity that I wouldn't pass up. Just my 2 cents.

I just found a 69 Boss 302 sitting in the weeds. I don`t know if the guy wants to sell it though.

Rhonda: If you don't want it, I would love to have a shot at it. PM me with details if you want.

Amazing how many classic musclecars are returning to nature out there w/ owners not wanting to sell at any price!

Mike, alot of 1966 coupes were Mustang sprints. I have no idea how many were made and I don`t know if they are more valuable. They always had a 6 cylinder and no side trim.

Steve, I`ll find out more about it if I can. I can`t afford a Boss, so all the power to you.
I found a 68 fastback with a 428 CJ and my connection in that case never got back to me on it.

I say go for it! Offer him $2500 like Perkchiro said. You can't go wrong, especially if you can do some of the restoration yourself.

It would be great to save another poor old car from becoming a garden ornament.

Good luck!

It also helps to have the cash with you. People tend to agree to a lower price when they see all that green.

Yeah, maybe I can find one like that and buy it.. Tho you would spend more monet restoring the car - than you bought it.. But, it's the reward for restoring - and then you would feel proud because you did it yourself..
