The 70-73s seem to have gone up a bunch over the last year.

I have a Lucerne Blue 70 T/A, automatic with column shift. It's a 70K original mile car that is all numbers match and rust-free. It's also been off the road about 14 years in storage. The car has a few mods, mainly a trunk mounted battery, dealer install hood pins, and H-O headers (it has the original manifolds).

I was talking with a guy about a possible trade for a late model WS6 T/A, and I posted on the TAC website to get opinions on what the car was worth.

I got a number of replies, but most thought it was worth in the high teens. I offered it to two different people a couple of years ago for $12K.

Not too long after that, the 70 T/A in FL went on EBAY with a rod knock, rust, and many missing parts. It went for over $14K. It will cost a bundle to buy the original parts and make that car right.

The Lucerne Blue cars seem to be bringing a premium over the white cars right now.
