Having I'm having Oldsmobile withdrawals as I sold my gold 70 earlier this year what a mistake! After I got those nice red line tires and SS1Wheels to what was I thinking oh well on the hunt for another I saw this convertible but not really looking for a convertible would like to find a nice 70 442 hardtop automatic only

A lot of variables will affect price.
-Originality...number match on all or most of the major components. If not add that to the negotiation.
-Documentation proving the pedigree/history of the car and of the restoration to see how bad it was prior to the resto. Amateur or professional resto? Body on or off frame? Receipts for the cost of the resto etc...
-Current condition. Bushings, BJs, Frame, all metal seams & inners, cowl under the windshield, floor & trunk pans. Does everything performance test ok? (functions).
-Is is a dry car or something that lived in the NW or NE all it life? Id ask to see the cowl under the windshield and the floors under the carpet. That alone will drop the price 10K if its shot. Getting someone to disassemble these items to inspect can be difficult.
-Drunk bidders at the auction lol....But a true factor.
-Ever been wrecked?
-Is it an "Event car"? Or just a replica? Event cars with lineage sell for more with proof.
The hose clamps and battery cables should be the least of your worries. That's a weekend of fun wrenching taking a car to the next level just by replacing the trinkets...down to the hose clamps as they say. Check under dash wiring. Rats nest or nice?
If this car is completely solid and meets the important criteria listed above expect ~75K ± 10K....non Mecum Dollars. If it goes to Mecum well.
