I tend to agree with you.

I remember back 15-20 years ago there was a company that was offering '60s and early '70 muscle cars for about the price of a modern day muscle car. They would start with a run of the mill condition car, say a 1965 GTO, and basically restore it with modern components like disc brakes, modern suspension, fuel injection, etc. I remember seeing an Old 442 and a couple of other cars they had done. Very affordable. Done very well. AND, affordable! But I guess it didn't pan out for them because they disappeared.

But there are other companies re-producing "modernized" classic muscle. Check out Revology Cars. Equally expensive but they offer the following Mustangs. Of course, purists would more prefer the cars in their pure, original versions, complete with original engines, drivetrains, interiors, etc.
* 1966 Mustang GT convertible - $167,760.
* 1966 Mustang GT 2+2 fastback - $178,680.
* 1966 Shelby GT350/GT350R - $194,720.
* 1967 Shelby GT500 - $227,760.
* 1968 Mustang GT 2+2 fastback - $180,680.

"This car may look like a 1966 Mustang. But it doesn’t drive like one. Why? Because we started with the timeless shape of the 1966 Mustang, then designed a modern car underneath it. Featuring a sophisticated double-wishbone front suspension, precise rack and pinion steering, confidence inspiring four-wheel disc brakes, and a powerful and efficient V8 engine, the Revology Mustang delivers driving excitement that rivals modern sportscars. Yet ,it does all this with a unique style that no modern car can match."

I wanted to do a full up restomod Camaro using a dynocorn body for the longest time.

Wasn't there one or two in particular that went for $300k and $400k?

Wasn't there some controversy about the Dynacorns? like they were made overseas or something?

There was a black one that went for $550k. Cant recall what was so special about it. Honestly surprised to see so many and also relatively low prices, I think of these as unicorn cars. I think hemi cudas go for more, dont they?

 

[RedVenom48]

I think so. From a production standpoint, I think the Boss 429 is rarer.

They used to but the values have come back down on them I believe to about that range or less. They were in the millions because during the muscle car craze 10 years back they were the unicorn of the Hemis.

The Boss 429 had two different blacks, Raven Black and Black Jade so it is possible one of those two colors is really rare. I think the Black Jade has a green tinge to it obviously.

Bob, I have a guy that I know in my town who has an all original Grabber Green Z-code 1970 Boss 429 that he bought new in 1970 and it has 17,000 original miles and its in mint original condition. He stores the Boss in his daughters climate controlled garage in North Carolina to keep it away from the winter moisture here in the Northeast. The car is beautiful, amazing and worth a ton of money. Its no doubt one of the best original 1970 Boss 429's around. Not many originals around like this one anymore.

 

[svtfocus2cobra]

There were only 1359 Boss 429s made between 69 (859) and 70 (500) and that includes 2 Boss Cougars as well. So yeah, they are pretty freakin rare!

 

[RedVenom48]

Id love to see one in person. The ultimate classic Mustang musclecar.

 

[svtfocus2cobra]

And uncorked, or equipped with the proper carb, Hot Rod I think it was dyno'd an otherwise stock 429 at 650hp!

Most likely made overseas, I read a few build articles and it is not for the faint of heart. Tremendous amount of metal work to get everything to fit with proper panel gaps.
