Default ‘73 L82 manual

Have been looking for a while, missed one or two good deals, dodged more than a few bad ones too. Looking for something that hasn’t been messed with or modified, no rust is a must.

Not an L82 but fills most of the other squares. I've seen the car and looks well maintained. Low miles if documented as original.

Looks beautiful but that's out of my range for a '73.

Default 73's

1973's are not collectors. These are toys.
Some will disagree and that's ok...can't force you to be right.
Maybe in 20 years...they might be in a better price range. But a car, any car, is only worth what it sells for. Obviously sellers want the most money and buyers want to pay the least.
Look at the prices that sellers are asking for some 73's, all over the scale. And that's why they are still for sale.
I have 2 73's; a coupe and a convertible. I don't have them for investments...only for fun!
