It's amazing that when I was getting my driver's license, this and other cars like it were considered junkers for the most part and could be had for literally nothing (maybe not a pristine Super Bird, but a Hemi 'Cuda could be had for a thousand bucks or less in 1985.)

Absolutely beautiful. My wife’s uncle passed away just late last week. His funeral was Tuesday of this week. About 25 years ago he bought a ‘68 GTO convertible to restored. He paid next to nothing for it but sunk no telling how much money into it. He made that car look showroom new. Did all the work himself except the paint job. He was into the cruise-in and car show scene and won a bunch of awards with his GTO. That car was his pride and joy. No telling what it’s worth now.

Maybe 1975. Not '85.

Granted they weren't a huge amount of money but not less than a grand unless it was a real roach with the motor gone.

It's almost a tossup - but that is also a very ugly car

I don’t understand how people say this is an ugly car. Its 50 years old. That thing is a work of art. $1.65M is no surprise.

Peace be with your family. I'd take my grandfather's 68 GTO over that Superbird any day. Been a long time since I've seen it.
