Dear Bob:
I gave $3600 for my '69 BGT in about the same condition as you describe. It
has chrome wires however. I have put about 200 bucks so far over 6 months of
driving (every day). Great car, and it's fun to work on too!!
You can find them for more and for less, but watch for rust in the boot and
sills. It shows up as small bubbles in the paint. Also pull up the carpet in
the drivers and passengers well. The floor should be dry and rust free.
Good luck and Kind regards,
Tim Economu

2) I knw the GT are not as sought after as the roadster and of course do
not demand the price but I have found a 73 that is fairly nice. Paint is
presentable but not prefect. The interior is real nice original that
looks very presentable. New tires on Rostyles. High mileage car but
engine rebuilt 20K miles ago. New tires, no rust, no O/D, all gaugaes and
lights work. Mechanically the car seems fine and the body is good but I
would probably want to repaint it in a couple of years. All chrome is
very presentable. I know it is very difficult to ascertain a value
without seeing the car but what would a ball park figure be for the value
of the car? Or maybe a range based upon the described condition?
Any help would be appreciated
Bob
