Competition Mustang, appr. value?

Around 700 US I believe based condition. YMMV

 

I'd say more like $1200-1300 depending on condition.

 

The competition version command a premium over the regular Mustangs. I would say $1,400 would be my top price if it's in extra great consition.

 

The competition versions are "rarer" than the standard versions, so they command a bigger price. The original Mustangs generally sell for $800-$1,000 on eBay. The reissues sell for about $800 new.

 

The only Mustang I've seen, similar to the one you're describing, is this:



It's from 1969, and has been for sale at a Swedish store for quite some time now. The asking price is roughly €1700, which I think is too much. And as it's been on display for such a long time, it seems as if I'm not the only one who thinks so.

The looks of that Mustang, however, is to die for.

 

Sorry, but under $1K for a 70's competition in decent shape is low. I have one and have been following prices of late. You should figure at least that much or more depending on condition.

 

According to the Blue Book, Mustangs in 98% original condition go for $1,350 for the 1966-1969 versions, $1,100 for the 1970-1978 versions and $900 for the 1979-1983 versions. For Competition versions in the same condition, add 10%. So, a Competition in good condition, deending on the year, is worth about $1,000 - $1,650.

 

Having owned a couple of old Mustangs, I tend to watch them on eBay. You won't get a competition for 1000$. Usually 1200-1500 depending on condition

 

True. What something's worth and what it goes for on eBay are usually not the same thing (for better or worse, depending on your viewpoint).

 

I could be wrong, but I think this is a situation whereby people remember wanting one of these basses 40 years ago but not having the loot at that time. Now the loot is there and the want is still there, so they are selling for more than they otherwise would.

I think there's alot of the same nostalga in the 60's car market right now.
