I’m not up on Hemi Roadrunner values, but 125k sounds a bit strong for a non-matching # car?

That’s gorgeous!  But too rich for my tastes.

I don’t understand the whole “list for 10x less than asking price” thing.

Like, do they expect to hook somebody looking for a $12,500 Roadrunner, then reel them in for a $125,000 sale? What is the demo they’re trying to sell to?

Perhaps it’s just a typo?

Facebook Marketplace has some sort of built-in algorithm that prevents posting things for more money that it thinks they’re worth, so people have to do that to circumvent it.

From what I hear, Facebook supposedly has some sort of thing where it won’t let you set what it deems an unreasonable price.

T hat’s how I’d take mine, but that’s a rich man’s toy. My children are my real fire breathing kick ass muscle car.  Or they replaced it in the budget anyway.

For a non-original car that sounds awfully strong to me too, but I don’t watch that market since it’s way above my paygrade.

Yeah, I’d be more interested in a driver-grade 1970 Roadrunner or GTX.

That is probably about 80% of what it cost to build it maybe less, if it is a real hemi car, if it was a 383 car to start it is too much.

Hemi rollers full of rust go for 25,000 easy, then a nut bolt restoration and tracking down an engine is well over 6 figures.

Big money to be sure but not unreasonable. Build one as nice yourself bet you can’t for under $125k
