What is the assessed value for tax purposes? That figure could get you in the ballpark. You could also have the car appraised.

Are you driving this car on forty year old tires?

If those are the original tires not only are the 40+ years old, they were recalled in 78.

If you post pictures of the front door pillar area ,underneath the car, and inside the kick panels you will get a better assessment of it's value. Also documentation helps.

Agreed. Car could be ready to fall apart not knowing the condition of the cage and frame.

Beautiful car though.

In April of 2013 I bought a one owner '72 BB matching numbers coupe with ps,pb,pw,a/c,tilt, deluxe interior with new calipers and tires. NS radio and front clip. Mag rims. Pretty good body needing paint, interior and windshield. Paid $14K

I'd be interested in what you determine.
