thank you for the info; 2507 made. pretty darn rare. I wonder how many are left.

Now all I have to do is figure out should I sell it or restore it. I'd really rather have a wagon, for sentimental reasons. Any idea on what its worth? needs floor patches, r. qtr., complete, although the 225 was replaced with a 318 some time back.

How's that for dumb! rather have a wagon than a ragtop! :roll:

I have no idea what the value would be, but a convertible will bring two to three times what a four door, or two door will of equal condition. The V8 could add 25% on top of that over a six cylinder depending on build and displacement. I should think a stock 318 or 273 would be on the low end of V8 price enhancement where a built Hemi would be the upper limit.

In the end, the value will be determinded between the seller and buyer regardless what any books say.

Start high, and dicker. Good luck.

Oh, check out "Hemmings Motor News" for like iron that is for sale.
