June 25, 200916 yr That would look good put back in Marina blue...with the 67 SS hood and a period corect 396 under the hood. Chris
June 25, 200916 yr The car is numbers matching, and very rare. An SS in everything but name. How much do you think it will be worth? $5k? If it was in southern states I would have seriously thought of getting one. But CA is way too far.
June 25, 200916 yr Author How much do you think it will be worth? $5k? If it was in southern states I would have seriously thought of getting one. But CA is way too far. Even with a home restoration, it is easily worth high teens. As it sits, 5k would be a good deal.
July 3, 200916 yr Finished up at $6700. Buddy of mine heavily into Chevelles (he tracked down his father's '67 SS convert and he bought it back- resto almost done) says this is worth a solid $25-30K as a restored non-SS, but maybe more.
July 3, 200916 yr Author Oh, I agree on those higher figures for the car properly done. A great find for someone, wish it could have been me.
July 3, 200916 yr Ditto, although if I ever get a Camino I want a 64 or a 65. I remember ehwn these cars were cheap...back in the early 1990's when I had just gotten my Mustang fastback, I remember seeing a black big block 67 El-Camino with a red interior and a factory big block for like $4100, and it was very, very clean. I also had a chance to buy a 57 Ranchero for $6500 and a 59 El-Camino for about 4k IIRC...Ranchero was yellow and white....the 59 was black also...had a later 350 in it... Sometimes I feel so stupid for the cars I never bought... It's never too late to have a lifetime of regret for the cars you never owned, methinks. Chris
