Wife bought me an E body, do I have to quit?

Have you seen what E bodies are going for project cost wise now a days?! You're lucky to find a rolling shell for under 7 grand, if its a complete, running E body, especially an early one, say 70/71, you'll be lucky to find one under 15 grand.
And there ya have it. As per you everyones restored A body is only worth 7K.
NOT!

And no, im not offended at all, I'm talking reality of the situation, is the situation dumb as hell, yes, but that doesn't change the fact that people are asking, and getting that kind of money, even for lowly 318 equipped E bodies, find a 340 70 e body and watch the cash pile up, even more so with a big block.
Good and sorry I went off the hook there a bit.
And again, there is the limitation to it. You selected a very desirable year. That is a lot like saying, "Those A body Dusters have really shot up in price with there sharktooth grill and ultra rare high winding 340." And/or "Those stupid rare 383/440 cars must be worth 40K by now!" and/or "Those A body big block cars have out priced my wallet! I was watching BJ auctions and a HEMI Dart went for 6 digits! Man did those throw away econo A body cars go up in price!"
And you know that is truly not the case but you make the same one for E body cars vs. a /6 Duster. REALLY!?!?!?!?

I wonder what a P.O.S. '73 small block 4spd goes for?
