R4sedan....1990 yes i remember it well, !!....i was at Mopar nats, had 1971 totally original, number matching 383(4BBL CAR) challener SE conv, in 71 it was an RT without the RT designation, triple black, no rust ever, fresh repaint.every thing fresh (perfect) except pretty darn nice ,,,... original carpet.. sold there for $10,000 went to Canada, guy next to me had 70 383 challenger conv car, his was 4 spd mine console auto. his sold there for like $16 or 17,000. i had only one offer!!!! i asked more, but big time Mopar jockey, told me sell, the market has crashed but most people don't know it yet! he was right. funny thing was the car mags kept telling people months later how so and so sold their car for big $$$$$. and the market is GREAAATTTT! seems they were trying to help their rich friends dump their cars before the whole world had figured the bubble had burst!!! LOL.
for months and years Mopar folks would call me and ask about some car i had advertised for sale,but there wern't any Mopar high end buyers, ALL people like me that were low to mid income people ... they were the real entusiasts ( not the high rollers from pre 90). problem was, NO cars were moving, the caller would have say 6 mopar projects, couldn't sell any to buy my car. every night the same type caller... each year after though i saw the market get about 10-15% stronger each year and before many years people were giving $5000 for 383 "69 runners that not too many years before i wouldn't have bought for even a parts car!! LOL
like alot of people on here have said, best to own these old cars cause we love em! if ya want an investment maybe pick something besides old cars!!!! new cars as investments? i'm not smart enough to predict the future for sure, but i recall Vette people that bought a new one and stored it with 0000 miles, only decades later to find out it really wasn't worth SQUAT!!! LOl
