I think $8K is fair. The only thing show quality is the exterior. Nasty under hood, look how faded that kick panel is, etc. Walk away with a clear conscience.
I agree. If the interior and engine compartment were redone, his asking price would probably be reasonable. But not in it's current condition.
I looked at a 71 GS 350/4 speed in 1991 that was for sale in Goderich, Ontario. It was a one owner car and it was as plain as the one you are looking at- except it was a bronze color with similar interior. It even had the Skylark hubcaps. The owner was a minister and told me he was embarassed by the Hurst shifter! Oh, BTW-he was asking $6500 for the car and I could only afford $4000. About a month later AFTER I bought a 66 Mustang he called me and said I could have the car for $4000! ou: Todd
I bet the car is still for sale. $13k is for a show worthy car. With the current condition, I bet a lot more will need replacing such as w-strip, bushings, ball joints, etc. Looks like a low option car, non-ac. He will have it for a while.
The car sold two weeks ago. The buyer was from Dallas. I don't know what he got for it though. Harvey
Hey ,,,not To Put My 2 Cents Where It Might Not Belong ,,but I Have A '71 Gs 455 Stage 1 Convertible ,,,and 434671h Can Only Be Either A Convertible 455 Gs Or A Convertible Stage 1 455 Gs ,,,,gs 350 Has A Different Vin #...,,,4 Speed ?? Yes ,very Rare.(i Think Only 9 Sticks Were Made In Hard Top,even Less Rag Tops, But Not Sure How Many ,the Book Is @ Home) ,,..according To The "gs Facts And Figures Book " Which I Am Lucky To Have A Copy Of...happen To Have An Extra Grille ??that's What I Need For Mine....good Luck ,buy The Car ! Cruisin' Lou
Lou, That is not correct. In 1971 (only) all GS' were identified by a "34". So a 43467 car could be a GS 350 or GS 455 (with or without Stage 1). Check here for more info on VIN's. Sounds like you have a neat car! 9 four speed Stage 1's is correct, Here are production numbers for GS'. Chris
I don't know, if its real 71 GS 350 four speed that is a pretty neat car.....spend 800.00 on the interior(new seat and door panels), some clean up under the hood and it would be a pretty smokin car. Its even got the correct grille... These cars are worth whatever the market will bring. 13K seems a bit high for that condition, but not unreasonable. Body looks nice, and 1 of 51!! later Tim
