I'd buy the same car all over again (74 TA) but even with the bias it's a fair investment.
I also agree the third gens will go thru the roof as the kids that wanted them in high school will be coming for them...

All dealer cars are always 10-20% over priced. its normal
You have to bang out a deal , or lettem keep it. There is no other 74-78 combo that looks as good as that Blue 74 the way its dressed. It makes a Bandit car look boring. The only thing missing is a 455 , but its a 12,000 mile time capsule 4spd AC Deluxe Honeycombs. I'd go look at it if you think you like it. |

Thanks for the PM. I got a 1950.00 quote good ratings 1.2k reviews. They did ask about the weight of original parts coming with the car in the trunk. 100lbs free over that a little more.

They are as nice as a 74 with many similarities and more accessible at least for now...a value in comparison but probably not for long.
Have you also considered a fourth Gen...here is one of the last ones: https://www.classiccardeals.com/List...ns-Am-WS6.aspx ![]() Not for me but a future investment...
