Bad omen for the value of 69 M-Code Cudas

according to the ebay ad, the noted M car was "numbers matching" with the original drive train. the add also listed a lot of new and NOS parts. you are correct about the 69 M-Code market being a limited market. i think the bottom line here is if you are buying "mopars" to "flip" for a profit, the B and E body cars are still where the money is.

Similar situation with B/E-bodies. A similar numbers and restored condition 69 GTX 440 4bbl auto tops out at $40K-$50K car. But more opportunity to cut corners and do a sloppy resto. Less critical buyers and larger market. The profit is in the cutting corners resto or starting with a car bought under market value.

M-codes sell more often needing resto as opposed to restored. It's a car people think should be worth more than they actually sell for restored. People go in with high hopes, but they seem to get passed around.

Also, many think the Dart M-code embodies the sleeper mystic more the the multi striped, hoop scooped, pony car 'Cuda.
