STEVE POLLARD Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 There is a 1969 Chevrolet Biscayne currently listed on ebay... right now it's around the $11 K mark....owner states all original and it looks it. I have '69 Impalas, but the Biscaynes and Bel Airs are unique since the production numbers are less and you just don't see them around that much. I have to say, there's a cool factor of a "Plain Jane" car like this ! What are you thoughts about the price and if it's worth restoring or leaving as is.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Commodore Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 I think this is the car he is speaking of. As far what its price goes, there is no price guide on the Biscayne, too rare. The price for a 1969 Impala hardtop coupe with a 327 is given as $11,266. This by Hagerty Classic Car Price Guide. I would not restore it. A car is only original once.http://www.ebay.com/itm/Chevrolet-Bel-Air-150-210-Biscayne-1969-biscayne-327-all-original-48-k-miles-rustfree-barn-find-no-/321563311780?forcerrptr=true&hash=item4adeaabea4&item=321563311780&pt=US_Cars_Trucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John348 Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Hey Steve,Car looks fairly priced to me, its all there looks solid, the door panels are in good shape (costly to have them done) I know from doing my 62 Biscayne there are some parts that are just unique to that body style and model and are next to impossible to find. The hardest parts I had to find was the rocker mouldings, every one I found was smashed flat from people kicking their feet against it to get the snow off their shoes. Window regulstors and a lot of the hardware is unique to the two door sedans, but good luck trying to find a Pontiac, Buick or Olds two door sedan as a donor. They are rare! and even rarer with a V-8 and an automatic.Does not look like it will be a real expensive restoration to do, rot is at a minumum, car is complete, and it runs! I wish my 62 Biscayne was as good as this car is. If you are looking for a Biscayne project there are not many left to choose from, I think the car is in the right price range Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John348 Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Too bad, looked like a nice car that was not butchered (yet), with all of the right parts intact Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEVE POLLARD Posted October 30, 2014 Author Share Posted October 30, 2014 Your right John, I hope that the new owner doesn't destroy it ....It would of look good parked between my two Impalas !Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Commodore Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Well, I can tell you that there were 39,200 V8 Biscayne's sold in 1966. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe in Canada Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Thanks for the info Commodore as I would like to put it on EBay this spring and get a pre 1916 car. It is a tough market out there so you never know what a cars value is to-day for an unrestored car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
