Considering a 69 Convertible, How much?

Post by MtnVairMike »

A little out of my league on this one but got the itch for a 69 convertible.
Yeah, there aren't many out there for sure.

What would be a good price range for one in excellent condition?
Hopefully pretty original and low miles. Hey might as well want it all right?

Thanks,

Mike

If you are talking about a cherry restored 90+ point car I would guess 18-25K somewhere. This is what I call excellent condition.

I like the sound of $25 more than $18 :chevy:

I totally agree. very pristine examples (non Corsas) bring this sometimes. Corsas break the 25k barrier a little more often. I think these numbers are all too low. They are creeping upwards, but, as we know Corvairs have been unvalued for a very long time.

I finally noticed I didn't get back to this thread and thank everyone for their inputs.

I added this beauty to the stable January 2022.
Glad to have another 1969 for folks to see!
Photos below.

Thanks,

Mike

Hopefully it was well built. IIRC the last Corvairs were handbuilt off the assembly line.
