1975 carrera value

ok this car is not forsale at this time but we are trying to determine what it would be worth on the open market.. this car is pretty much as you see it very clean and had a respray to origanal color back in the 80s and is a full leather car with the rare hardtop option. it has a 3.0 liter motor in it now but i have the origanal 2.7. it is car 146 of the targas. or 146 of the 1975s.all the wheels are date coded and the car is pretty much as clean as the under hood pics even the wheel wells are nice and unristored yellow in factory paint heres a couple of pics.

While well-restored '74s have been going in the 30s or even 40s, I think 18-20K range is about right here. Less to sell quick. That said, I think it will be worth less next year (economy).

thanks for your input lets me know i bit what the market is doing this old car is holding the same value a good sc is.

just got back from the garage spending some time with this car and id be hard pressed to find any car that is as origanal and clean as this one i think we will ride out the bad economy and if the prices do go down ill buy another.

Good idea. I plan to buy a short hood as a daily driver in the near future. Then might get something special for weekends if prices really tank. My '74 is staying for the forseeable future. I bought it for 25K four years ago (overpaid, but it was the right car at the right time, and had some valuable tweaks I wanted -- also has a euro 3.0 in it, with the 2.7 on the side in the deal). I have another 25 in it for track prep. I'm sure if I tried to sell it, I would struggle for 25 now. I love the 'early' feel to the car.

Just asking a question about your 74 Carrrera. I had that exact car, some time ago and the roll bat was not anodized black. was that a factory option ? Mine was original and had the standard brushed aluminum. I'm sure the factory would do most options if asked. Nice car ...
