I didn't want to comment on the asking price last time, as with classic cars this is very much subjective, and others might have a better idea.
Plus there are a lot of unknown factors involved, like, is it running, is it a small block or big block car, rust, does it have papers, interior condition, etc, etc.

From what I can gather from the photos, this car is at most, worth R75k.

The value of this car must be very much in line with that of a Fairmont GT, especially if it has the 390.

In your decision, you would also have to consider that you would not be able to source any body, interior, trim or glass parts locally, all would have to be imported. There must be less of these cars in SA, than Mustangs.

Just my 2c.

What does the front fender badge say? These were available with a 427...

I spotted this Fairlane now for sale on Facebook.

After the Mustang fastback debate, I'm wondering what your comments will be here?
