Back to topic. This is pretty accurate I think. Your car is worth what you believe and the a potential buyer thinks it worth whatever he wants to pay based on research, attraction etc.

My personal opinion is that the 70-73 cars have been out of reach for many in the hobby that we gloss right over them knowing we can’t afford them. I think the money of the baby boomers is getting less and less and the trend will continue on all of it. There’s a big gap coming for car lovers of the 80s and 90s due to rusty junk and government buy backs.
I’m 53 and I’m not into any of them except a 98-02 Bird and they are just ok. After 82 there are no cars for the Pontiac Purists.
Maybe that makes 70-73 Birds worth more or maybe less
