Subject: [Chevelle-List] Strange Dilemma=
which to keep vs. which to sell
This may sound like a lame question, but rambling thoughts on too many
classic cars causes me to ask opinions about selling one (or even two):
- I have a 67 Chevelle SS, 67 Chevelle Malibu, and 57 Chevy Bel Air Sport
Coupe
a. I have to sell at least one of these vehicles.
b. The 67 Chevelle SS is matching numbers and completely restored so it
stays. Appraised at 32K. But, you would not want to use as a daily driver.
c. The 67 Chevelle Malibu has a 383 stroker, headers, and in great
condition. New gas tank, new radiator. Engine good condition. Little rust. A
good driver. Not a show car.Brakes have to be upgraded. Interior original and
new headliner and carpeting. Great
condition. Has powerglide trans. Can be upgraded to 350 turbo. Underneath
of car has the classic rust coating they used in 60's and 70's. Sounds loud
and proud. Carter Carb,
nice stereo system. Alarm.
d. The 57 Chevy has original 283 engine and powerglide trans.
Re-done interior, power steering and front disc. brakes, new gas tank, new
radiator. Needs new trunk pan, and
2 new inner fender wells. Needs frame to be sandblasted. Needs to have
engine bay and
hood to also be sandblasted. Not a show car, but a good cruiser.
So between the 67 Chevelle Malibu and 57 Chevy which one would you keep.
The 57 Chevy probably has more value than the 67 Malibu. I love the way the 67
Malibu handles
but guidebooks indicate value is much less than a 67 SS--or even a 57
Chevy.
Well, again, lame question. But, one has got to go.
Thoughts ?
Happy 4th July.
