Those, of course, are the American Racing 200S wheels, not painted gold. And a very unusual decal in the rear 1/4 window. Story has it that George Hurst himself used this car for a short spell back when new.

I'll be taking a closer look at this car once I get back from vacation. My pal in nearby Lakeland bought it and has already retrieved it.

Buckets are wrong for this car. Can't currently tell what's right or wrong on it as of now.

Will a PHS show what Hurst did to that car ?? If not is there any way to document what Hurst did on these conversions ? A fellow recently sold a black/gold '72 SSJ on Ebay and claimed that Hurst installed Lincoln Mk IV style opera windows in it.

He ordered PHS for both of his cars, so we'll learn about more than this one (although the other one is a "conventional" SSJ).

add says he also has a black and gold one for 12K but he's "keeping one".
at those prices, in that condition, i'll bet he's keeping both.

Crazy. It's not like those SSJ's are a '70-'71 Challenger or Cuda project.

These are the PHS for both cars in the ad. Interesting the silver car isn't signed off on the invoice by Hurst Research . They must have kept it ? It didn't go back to the dealer for a customer. The black car invoice is signed off .

Who knows. I heard that a collector/dealer in Florida found and bought the "I Dream of Jeannie" Roger Healey custom Firebird convertible with the Trans Am parts on it , paid about the same as that SSJ and then flipped it on Ebay for 90k. What would you pay for a '69 Judge convertible in the same condition ? I heard another deal where a seller in Florida had a severely rotted '69 Trans Am RAIII 3 spd manual hardtop and was paid 20k for it. So, is this SSJ really out of line ?

not that it matters, I'll give my opinion anyway. Yes, the asking price is way out of line for what it is. a convertible judge, '69 T/A, or Hollywood specialty car, all are very desirable (to a wide range of people) and have six figure potential restored. the poor SSJ doesn't share that desirability among anywhere near as large a buying group, unfortunately. the few nice SSJ's I've seen for sale on the internet, have had an asking price in the mid to high twenty's. even if they were going well into the thirties, at the original sellers 3k price, you'd still be upside down in that car after the restoration. let alone with a 18K buy in.
all that being said, I don't begrudge anybody for asking whatever they want for their car. after all, it is their car and a free market. If it doesn't make sense to me, I'll just move on. knowing what little I do know, I just don't see a path being beaten down to his door by people wanting to buy them. good for him, if I'm wrong. |
