You can use the Hagerty Valuation Guide/Tool, but you have to make a determination on where it sits between a 2 and a 3. Also take a look at the Mecum Auction results over the past 6 months, this will give you a good perspective. IMO the C3 market has gone flat.

Why did it need all that redoing/freshening up if it only has 26k miles?

If you are just looking for opinions as to value ask the moderators to move the thread to the general C3 section.

A much more detailed description would be helpful including any issues. The pictures are too far away to show any detail. Post under hood and undercarriage pictures while your at it.

Looking at the cars that sold on the Bring a Trailer auction site is another excellent source of information.

This thread is a good example of, it would be great if someone let a moderator know or hit the “Reported Post” button.

Moving to General Discussion, as this is a “Whats it Worth” thread, not a Car For Sale.

Just my .02, I'm NOT paying anywhere near $60,000 for that car. Your into nice LT-1 money cars now !! Other then the very low miles ( not sure of what paperwork / documentation it has ) it's just an ordinary, pretty common 70 coupe ! I can only see a wiper door issue to start with, & without seeing it in person, or more detailed pics & documentation that might or might not be included, I'm a $28 - $30 max kinda guy on this one !
