i found this car while on a recent road trip ..... 1974 Plymouth satellite sebring plus with a 400 , rare factory sun roof , air , 8 track , new wind shield , dual exhaust,... i fired her up , and it has a sweet rumble , this car has not been molested..............what do you think this is worth

Could have been beaten and just cleverly restored?

Way to much for me to afford it.

not onlty rare sunroof but the sunroof with the white int. is probably even more rare.
used to hang out with a guy bought a mid 60's dodge 2 door white int. got it off an old lady down the block deal, pd 2600.00 bucks for it had less than 100 000 miles on it never restored minty shape old man bought it died , had n kids she never sold yada yada deal. well got it appraised after he bought it, was one of 65 built that year with the white int, valued at 38,000. he was a little extatic over that one lol, and to think he was going to jew her on the price. lol
i would put that unit in the mid to high 20s if it is in as good of shape as it looks.

I had a '74 roadrunner, years ago.........almost identical car, without the sunroof, but had the 3604bbl ho engine, and slapstick auto. And it was green....... Also had a '74 dodge charger with a 318, that i warmed over, including 360ho heads, hi comp pistons etc....... Went pretty good for a 318.

That sebring is a collectible item, with the sunroof and 400. This was at a car show somewhere.......... What are they asking???

the owner said he picked it up in south dakota , but would not say what he paid , he says he would like to get 8 grand .............. 1st thing i looked at was the trunk floor .... no rust

 

[ponyboy]

yeah it is a car show some where ... the pics i posted are not the car i found ( but identical )

if the guy says he would take 8 after he has trucked it up out of the us i am sure he has done his homework and probably about all it is worth. keep looking around. but either way it is a nice lookin whip for 8k.

was thinking to wave five large in his face .... the boss / wife says it is nice , but it is not the 68 coronet rt 440 mag .

I'd say 8k is at the top of what it's worth. The 74 body style is not high on the desireable list and the 400 plant is also low on the list. Most of the Mopars really drop off the value after 72....

I would pay 5 grand for it! Not my ideal car but looks in good shape and with time you never know.

i would suggest $6g's........ Have a good look under body especially the unibody joints to the body, as these were prone to rusting away. If you're not happy with the 400 performance, 440's bolt right in, and also the 400 can be made into 488 strokers or even 500 strokers with mods done......... but the 400 should be plenty fun for ya........if it's #'s matching, even better!!!

 

[ponyboy]

almost positive that is a matching #s car ............. my good friend is also a mopar nut with several chargers and hes good with the vin code ....

I have to agree they are not that desirable if newer than 72. I had a 74 roadrunner/GTX with a 440 that I had Les Davenport improve the smog engine in. It was numbers matching with air and cruise one of 365 built that year with a 440. Auto only with a 440 that year. I sold it for 10K nine years ago and bet that is all you could get for it today. If it was a 71 or 2 it would be a lot more. I owned it for 23 years and it actually was a pile of crap to be honest.
Sat in the shop at the farm and every now and then we would take it out and burn the wheels off. About all it was good for.
