WIW 1966 Barracuda

$5k to $8k? Yikes. I've got at least $20k to $25k into over the years. Haven't added up the receipts in a long time.

The sad part is it doesn't matter how much money you have in a car because you can seldom get anywhere near it. Unless you have some rare pedigree car, it is just another piece of vintage iron that there is still plenty of out there. The early A Barracuda is just now starting to gain some recognition but they will never command the money the second generation Barracuda does. Same way with the second generation Barracuda when compared to the third generation Barracuda/Cuda. I saw a beautifully restored 66 black Barracuda set on the market for 6 months in Missouri and he was only asking $5500 or $6000 for it.

If you want to get an estimate, check eBay's completed auctions and start watching the current auctions. What the ending bids are is the best estimate to figure out a value.

The location also plays in the value. Cars on the west coast sell cheaper than cars in the rust belts.
