any idea what year this ad is from? either its his sales gimmick to "lower" the price on everything or was it during the gas crunch when you couldnt hardly give a musclecar away.

By 1971, if you could find insurance, it was prohibitively expensive. Resale value tanked, dealers didn't want to trade them in. This is from my May 1970 insurance policy app.

When I bought my red '67 SS in '67, the agent from the company my parents had been with for 30 years came out.

[QUOTE=William;1649225]The insurance industry killed 60s/70s muscle cars. Don Yenko said as much in his famous MCR interview.
By 1971, if you could find insurance, it was prohibitively expensive. Resale value tanked, dealers didn't want to trade them in. My 65 GTO in 1972 for insurance was over a $100 a month, that was with a 100% surcharge if I remember right. I was 19 with to tickets or accidents..... |
