Also, what are you guys thinking in terms of value with our Landy Challenger. I'd love to get any feedback I can. Any information would be more than appreciated.

Thanks,
Shawn

...I've seen HEMI E-Bodys going unsold recently in the $150K (and less) range, supposedly nice cars, but they all look good in the advertisements pictures...this car interests me, but not at $95K...not sure how much the Landy stuff would add to it, possibly not as much as one would think, possibly nothing at all, just an interesting history/story and nearly EVERY old car has a story...

...obviously, it needs lots of $$$ spent to bring it back, deduct that from current market pricing for a HEMI Challenger and there's the answer...the real question is, WHAT IS TODAYS MARKET PRICE for a finished car ...it's apparently worth what you paid for it, because you bought it...did you get a steal, or pay too much, only time will tell...personally, I don't think the Landy connection will bring a lot of extra $$$ if any, but there's always that one guy that will want it bad enough to pay plenty, just gotta find him...sorry, but thats about the best I can come up with, you have a most interesting piece of MOPAR/Landy history there

Just out of curiosity, does anyone know where the Dick Landy Super Stock Dart was sold through? Was it a private sale or auction? Also, has anyone heard of any recent Super Stock Cudas selling?

Shawn,
I believe the documented history of your car and the Landy factor have to add a 20%-25% premium over and above a "retail" Hemi Challenger. I'm not an expert but I've been following (in detail, for my next purchase) the value of Hemi E-bodies for the past 2 yrs.
Think about premiums on documented Mr. Norms cars, Yenko's, Royal Bobcat GTO's, Shelby's, Saleens etc. I realize these mentioned are high volume retail cars and Landy is not exactly in the same catagory. He was a very successful drag racer who quietly marketed his expertise on a smaller scale to the general public. It's not too difficult to find specilaty cars from the previously mentioned names, try to find another documented Dick Landy prepped car.
Just my 2 cents,
Good Luck with the sale,
Brian

Thank you Brian. I think you're about right. Everyone I've spoken with who follows everything has about the same opinion so I think if we get around the 85k mark we will probably just let her go. I really appreciate your input and thanks to everyone whos commented.

Thanks,
Shawn
