Depends if it is a 4dr sedan or HT.

Unfortunately, a 61- 4 Dr. sedan with some rust in it isn't in much demand. Now, a Starliner H.T. in nice shape would be a different matter.. Without seeing photos it's difficult, but as a guess, maybe $ 4000 to $7000 at best.

Billy, for 60 grand you should be able to deliver it to California.

Hard to say! I have a 62 Galaxie 500XL which has never had a patch in its life, nice interior with buckets and console and i am asking about half what its worth compared to others in Hemmings motor news and on the net and I haven't had any bites in 3 years, I definately wouldnt make it as a salesman.
Location is key! Hemmings post the results of 2 auctions in each issue and in the same issue they had a 62 T bird which sold at the owls head auction in Maine for 5,500.00 and a similar T Bird sold at auction in Monterey California for 65,000.00. I am in the wrong place.

Right. Will try-- but I'm on one coast and son and car are on the other. I'll see if he can send me some photos.

A few photos of the car inside and out would be a good starting point. Remember the saying "a picture is worth a 1000 words"?

Hello all,
Its been several years since I've been on the site. Many of you helped me get my (then) teenage son's 1961 Galaxie ready for a circumnavigation of the entire US. Special thanks to Ted Eaton who sold us a manifold so we could put dual exhausts and a 4bbl on. Well, my son drove the car across the US for a second time but now is at a point in his life where it makes sense for him to try to sell the car. I have NO idea what it is worth. We just want some idea of a fair price. The car has never been restored so there are some dings and rust around the rear wheel arches/fenders. We had the original transmission completely rebuilt by a shop that knew what they were doing. The heads have been gone over, new valves, springs, rockers and push rods from Mummert. HEI  ignition from Dave's HEI. We had a local spring shop install new leaf springs in the rear but never got around to the coils in front. This is a four door. Can anyone suggest a ballpark figure? I know this isn't much info to go on but neither of us has a better idea how to start to arrive at a price. Thanks.
