There is no information available - but it was'nt too many. I have been looking for 11 years for a high quality Marina blue rs/ss convertible and I'm still looking!!!

 

There were 25,141 convertibles assembled in 1967, 20,440 in 1968 and 17,573 in 1969. The '67 should be the easiest to find... There are many unknowns about these cars but the totals are known.

thanks for your help I have a 67 rs ss conv blue with black top original engine is gone but it has a 327 4sd

 

CRG would like to have the data on your car if you don't mind sharing it (vin#, trim tag, drive train #s). You can post it or e-mail it to me.

Great information. Dennis, I have a 69 SS396 Convertible, Any idea how many of these were built???? I have found #'s on Convertibles, big blocks, and eight cyl.'s, but cannot find how many converts were true big blocks?? Thanks,

Doug

 

Doug, It's math and statistics or educated guess time. What you can do is find the percentage of all '67s that were big blocks and apply the percentage to the number of ragtops. You can do the same with some of the other options you can verify your car came from the factory with if you know how many were produced. I think this gets you close. I found you have to watch for querks when trying to figure out how many 69 RS ragtops were produced. The percentage number was less than the total number of pace cars which fall into the RS ragtop catagory. OOPS!! I then removed the pace cars from the total 69s and got a different percentage and applied it. I think I came up with 14% then and that comes to about 1900 +- RS Ragtops If I recall correctly. Number make my head hurt!!!

Thanks Dennis

 

HI Ginsu - Dont imagine you would sell it, would you??

 

Flatt67 - sorry but we don't allow soliciting in the forums... If we did that's all this place would be is a big swap meet and the exchange of information would be much harder.

No it`s not for sale after researching it I found out it was being made the same month I was born. I purchased it new york and drove it home to Washington. I wish there was A way to find out how many RS SS conv. 4SP cars where made in 67. Iam shure there had to be 3-4 thousand at least The original engine is gone some day I would like to track one down. I know that effects the value but it`s still a great car

 

My wife is hounding me to ask how much less the car is worth without the original engine I read somewhere that on average it is worth 10 to 15 percent less on average. So what do you think? I know to some people it is a lot more than that.

 

There's 49,187 4spd 67's and a lot of other known numbers SS's, RS's as shown above. You can apply the math and percentages in the same was as above to get a ball park figure.

As for matching #'s and value it depends on the car, it depends on other things as well like if the engine is date correct but not the orig or not even the right displacement. It's safe to speculate a 327 car will appreciate in value over the years but in todays market there will be fewer buyers looking for one to keep it stock than there are wanting it to hotrod it a bit. Compare it to an SS350 and more would want it (and keep it) stock than would hotrod it. The SS350's value is increased more being #'s correct in comparison to the 327 car.
