Comparing Muscle Car Prices

Automobiles that was produced in the 50s, 60s and 70s featured v8 engines and gas guzzling tendencies and hence it was described by the term muscle car.These cars are not produced anymore because of the energy crisis and level of pollution they produce. They are, however, widely collected and often restored to their former glory by enthusiasts and collectors. Because these cars are found in many different conditions, muscle car prices will vary widely. You will want to check trusted price guides when determining the value of these cars.

Commonly used price guides like NADA and the Kelley Blue Book only go back a certain number of years. If you are looking for the value of a muscle car that is older than 1979, you will need to find a different guide. In addition to printed guides, there are a variety of online price guides you can access for free right on your home computer. The Gold Book is an example of a great site where you can easily look up the value of a muscle car.

First, you will be asked to give the make of the car. Then, the year and the model. The value will then be determined depending on that criteria. Let's say we're looking for the price of a 1977 Dodge Charger. Once you look this up, you will discover that the Fair Condition price is $2,400, The Good Condition price is $5,300, the Excellent Condition price is $7,600 and Show Condition price is $10,000. The average quoted loan value is $4500. Another extremely reliable guide besides the Gold Book is the Popular Mechanics Muscle Car Price Guide.

You may also want to do your own independent research on muscle car prices. You may have a particular car in mind when researching prices. If so, there are many places to search. Newspaper classifieds can often be a good place to find muscle cars for sale. Or, you may want to search online. Sites like Ebay and Craigslist can show you what people are charging for their muscle cars. By using the information you find in price guides along with your own researched prices, you can best estimate the cost of the muscle car you are looking to buy or sell.
