1968 vs 1969, 1970 dart values

may be because of number of vehicles made between the years, you could get a 340 swinger in 69 and had to get a GTS in 68 to get the 340. I also prefer the 68 GTS over the 69. I also believe Hagerty values are too high, I use old cars report price guide. it uses selling prices for a basis and not insurance values.

if you are worried about values, look for rare options on the car with documentation, fender tag and build sheet, like disc brakes, floor console shift, interior light group and for the 68 the center grill piece that is stupid rare. stuff like this will make the car more desirable.

I would have an expert appraiser that specializes in mopars also inspect and verify the car including its condition. I would also NOT pay a premium for the car as I rarely if ever see cars sell at auction for the values posted by the experts or the prices listed in some adds.
