My uncle is interested but the asking price looks a little out of waco with others I have seen the last 6 months or so.

Way too much. A lot of it is not correct or even all that nice. Even the air cleaner isn't correct its from a Plymouth. Stuff like air shocks? Really? He doesn't mention but I bet it is not matching numbers and I bet its a 383 car originally... I would be amazed if the bodywork is well done.

IMO without seeing it of course it is more like a $20K car tops. Maybe low 20s if it is nicer than I think it is. Nice Road Runners and Super Bees are all over Moparts.com and Ebay and Craigslist for low 20s nowadays.

Steering wheel, windshield sticker and griffin radiator stands out as poor and odd for a fully restored Mopar...

I sure hope that's no a CD player in there

If he really wants it start at 16k and go to 19-20k. That's if the drive trains number matching. If not stay low.

I don't know nearly as much about these things as others do, but I can look at it and tell it's not in the "big money original MOPARs". Looks like a very cool cruiser, though. I'd rock it, but not for anything close to that price.

It can't be...Super Bee's were only 383 magnum's or 426 Hemi's, or for 69 mid-year is when they added the 440, but only in "Six Pack" form.

Lots of cars in that condition in the low 20's out there...

"fully restored"

People just throw that term around, I don't think they know what that means.

Dusted off the rust with a wire wheel attached to a drill, rattle can primer and paint on the frame. Bondo on the body with a paint job. Armor All on the interior, new carpet and a rebuilt motor/trans from a junkyard.

Agreed! When I hear "fully restored" I'd expect a pretty much full on restro. Why not just list what you've done or partial restoration. Only makes you look sketchy when you post fully restored and it's no where near that.

My thoughts exactly. Sometimes pictures can hide things, and make things look way better. This car looks shitty in the pictures, so imagine what it looks like in person. Where is this retoration? I'd say $15k at best, and that's a stretch...
