What's a 62 Bel Air 4 door hard top worth - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

threeonthetree · 03-20-2010, 02:44 PM

not sure if this is the right board but I'm looking for some input on this car.
mostly wondering if it is worth a grand...

car is pretty solid doesn't run.
4 door hard top
only a few holes in the floor
and a couple holes in the trunk. doors are good. fenders are rusty in the bottom corners. interior is mostly complete.
all glass is there
has a 250 inline six.
has a 2spd poweglide trans.
i have no clue what the value of this car is worth.
needs brakes and other things to get it going.

any advice is helpful

if someone can move this to a better board to get answers please do.

will have some pics.

If this is something you are looking at, to buy, it's fine. If it is yours and you are trying to guage a selling price, it's a no-no.

threeonthetree · 03-20-2010, 05:33 PM

looking at buying the car
not sure what its worth

not looking for a selling price i know the rules of the board

sorry for the confusion.

jw if the car is worth 1000
dont see to many up here in Wisconsin so i have no idea of the value of it.

threeonthetree · 03-20-2010, 06:09 PM

also is there any boards or places i can go to find out more info on these cars

The most valuable parts are the front clip and the powerglide

You might also get a some cash for the front and rear glass if it's in great shape.

4 door = scrap

Leinie,don't be so hard on this car!
There are a lot of people who like and want these hardtops.
I own 2 myself.
A 65 Caprice 4 door hardtop.
A 57 Chevy BelAir 4door hardtop.
And I own several other classics.
As far as the value of the 62,it's hard to tell without pictures and other information.
BUT,if it's running and easily made drivable,rust and body damage are minim al,then it is worth it!

yeah thats like saying long boxes are junk

here are some pics tell me what you guys think?

threeonthetree · 03-21-2010, 07:53 PM

anybody know what motor this is.
has a monojet carb.

Edit... have purchased the car. just wondering if i got ripped off. engine doesn't run.
the body doesnt look that bad for a 62 in wisconsin

Restrorob · 03-22-2010, 04:51 PM

I would have bought that car in a heart beat, You did good in my book !

100%Chevy · 03-22-2010, 08:54 PM

Threeonthetree---
That's a 4 door sedan not a hardtop!
Still worth the money though!
Nice catch!
Mike.

Not bad at all. If the inside lip of the trunk lid is rust free and there's no damage it's worth nearly half the purchase price. Have you checked the rear for a posi? It will have a "P" cast into the center section, and usually a warning sticker inside the trunk lid. You can easily break even +++++ if you decide to part it. I would say you did fine. Sharpie

threeonthetree · 03-23-2010, 09:59 PM

hard tops didn't have divider between the doors?
what's the difference?

Thanks guys,
i'm glad i didn't get ripped on it.. sounds like can make some on it.

I'm not sure about the rearend... where would the P be?
i got a build going in my build thread.. sorta a mix of my truck and this 62 if anybody is interested.
