I'm thinking of parting ways with my '74 LE Bumble Bee roller and was hoping to get some input on pricing. The car is solid with good floors, longs, hell hole, good interior, etc. but was hit at some point in the past and not fixed correctly. I have a front clip for the car and have been given an estimate of $900 to clip the front end. Car has original rocker covers, air dams, an 5 Mahle wheels.

Also, what would be a reasonable price a 2.0L core engine with side shift tranny. Engine has been successfully stared while on a pallet with stock FI but should only be considered as a core.

Thanks for input!

would probably be good to sell it with as many pieces to put it back together as possible, core engine and transmission included. I would say that if you sold it with all of the pieces, 7500 would be reasonable, 95 not out of the question

Hijack because this seems to be going off the rails anyways....

If we are on the subject of roller LE values, whats mine worth???!!

Been hiding this roller...

Numbers matching engine freshly rebuilt still on the dolly and a couple big boxes of new rubber just waiting on me to have the time to reassemble.

I'd guess at ~$5k-$15K as it sits. $15K-$25K if it were complete and running. You take a big hit when selling something as a project....
