Austat Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 I have a feeling that 2 door Avengers, and most likely 4 doors as well will be overpriced in ten years time as the restomod scene will look at Ford Escrot alternatives as they've become too expensive. That's my prediction. Shite wheels on this one, but this is lovely as is: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1976-Hillman-Avenger-2-door-saloon-1-3-rare-easy-project/324386900317?hash=item4b86f7495d:g:-JkAAOSw7Q1fvA2G Any ideas on what else in particular will go up in price in the 70's saloon category. I believe Imps will go up even more, but that's technically a hatchback. Braddon81, Amishtat and Cavcraft 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe Imps will go up even more, but that's technically a hatchback. Anything RWD and small to medium-sized really: Vivas and Kadetts spring to mind. Manta and Ascona are already on their way up. Rootes Arrow series are also climbing. Marinas are picking up but not at the same speed. I'm a bit surprised the humble Minor hasn't been grabbed in the same way; it's light and simple and is basically an MG Midget under the skin. I know it's been an established classic for decades but you can still find them at remarkably reasonable prices. Ditto the Austin A40. Old Toyotas and Datsuns? Most have rotted away and the survivors seem to be up between GM and Ford in terms of pricing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love a 2 door Avenger - I went with my father to pick up his brand new back in 1974 - but for many years now the price of 2 door shells has been ramped up by the historic rally boys who have seemingly bottomless pockets of cash to spend. 2door Avengers are very hard to find - this car will end up - like nearly all 2doors as a rally car.
