Asking people what the junkyard Dart is worth. Car show reactions

- I’ve been wanting to do this for a long time. I took my 1968 Dodge Dart GT convertible that I plucked from a junkyard, built in 3 months on an insanely tight budget, and raced down the strip at Barona (and Tucson) over to a car show to get some real world values and impressions. What do you think? Are these prices the new norm?

I would have said like $4k. I’ll be there on the 18th so I’ll get to see it in person.
Sweet! What are you bringing?
You mean if it is running???? 66 Charger with a tired 440 and no interior. I was supposed to be at your first race with Jonny and your second race come To think of it.
@@JoesMoparMess sometimes you’ve just gotta throw a few wrenches across the garage for the project to finally make headway haha. Hopefully it’s running on the 18th but, if not, at least you’ll get to watch a few ratty Mopars burn rubber and oil down the 1/8 mile.
2k for a convertible was a good deal, especially with a GTS hood. I'm thinking it should be around 5-6k. $12,500 seems pretty high to me but they're worth whatever people are willing to pay. For reference I paid $2,180 for my running and driving 68 383 GTS hardtop. However that was just over 30 years ago and times have changed.
A decent 383 GTS hardtop today goes for 30-40k. At least over here in California. I absolutely love the look of the 68 darts.
@@sorta_stock Mine was a runner when I bought it but it did have issues. Rust in the quarters (less than yours) and in the trunk. Two bad repaints. Drivers seat was shredded and the medallion was missing (That medallion was a pain to hunt down in the early 90's before Ebay) The carpet was toast but the floors were solid. Surprisingly the rest of the interior looked almost new. Still has the factory dashpad, door panels, and 3 of the armrests in it now. If I had to guess I'd say that condition would be worth 15-20k today but I'll admit I'm not totally up to snuff on Covid project car prices, perhaps it is more.
I *love* the 68's too. The round marker lights, along with a better looking grille and tail panel than the 7s or 9s make it my favorite. Although I will admit I'd prefer an M-code 69 440 Dart over my 68 383. However, if I was actually in the market for an M code my first choice would be a 'Cuda over a Dart.
You left the camera man behind haha . Cool cars thanks for sharing
Struggle is real haha
SELL SELL SELL at 10-15k 🤣that’s almost B body money 😎
Not the ugliest car at the show! There is something about an old car that hasn't been it's best for a long, long time, back on the road doing things.
It would show better and be worth more if you would straighten that front bumper. That bothers the **** out of me.
Dang dude, did you tell them it was a Road Runner to get those high estimates? No way A bodies are worth that much.
Roadrunners and Darts do look similar lol. Most of the estimates were higher than I thought. I would expect to see it listed around $10-$12k with a sale price between $8-$10k
Jonny I think they were trying to be nice since his was the “special” car at the show. You know the one that gets the participation trophy! Hey what can I say, I would have had to walk into the show not drive!!
@@JoesMoparMess Lol. I agree. Although it did beat our Belvedere in a build off. So it’s kinda famous.
they made shit load of road runners i have three out back i do have a 1968 dart gts 383 4 speed convert a body out back need restored and all numbers matching its a body ?
@@rebeccajohnson1407 cool can I have one of your RoadRunners???
