I bought this car a week ago. It is awesome and runs great!
I replaced the oil, plugs, brakes, master cylinder, and shocks. I sealed the moonroof with sealant and tore out the nasty carpet.
I need seats, dash cap, and carpet.
Can anyone estimate a value for me?? Not that I want to sell.

i like the black bobcat!! i have one 75 orange hatchback and a 78 wagon. i wouldnt take less then $12,000.00 for my 75, its a clean 38,000 original documented 2.8 car thats as clean as the day it was rolled off the asembly line. my wagon its a driver/project car when done $5,000.00.
dont know if im really helping, but its worth what someone else will pay you for it!!
take care and good luck with the new cat!!!

That looks like a clean car. Black is sharp with all the chrome. Like bbobcat75 said, value is subjective. My '80 Runabout has an extremely rare special order package & once it's finished I'd put a max value of maybe 8K on it. I wouldn't sell it for that since it's one of a kind & I know every nut & bolt personally. That said, I doubt Ebay would bring more than $5500 based on what I see on there.

gotta love driving down pinto ln!!

My Pintos and parts are priceless to me... 8) Nice looking cat for sure!!
-
the bobcats do look the part, just a shame they were not built earlier like the pinto, they would be another level without the ugly big bumpers on them.. has anyone fitted pinto bumpers to one ????????

I know this hasn't been replied to in a while but I can't help it. I love Bobcats. I am so close to getting mine all finished up. I love the car in black, though I am normally not a black car fan (even though my Pangra is black). Keep us posted on the work. The car is sharp! Here is mine (wood and front seats are all that's left):

All of the featured Bobcats are beauties,... but I like that orange one the best! ;D
Alberto, once you get that woodgrain on, it'll be tough to play favorites... ::)

Let me know if you get ready to sell, OP! Talk about a soul survivor!

The orange looks great. I think it is my favorite. Here is my yellow one for comparison.

Hi guys, I just bought a 1979 Pinto, Canadian model. Apparently some of the parts used in the Canadian model were Bobcat parts.
I'm looking for an Orange driver's side door panel for a 1979. Any body know where I could find one, or can they be replicated by someone you know?
Thanks,
Ronnie

Do you know if you have standard or deluxe door panels? Deluxe has a fake wood grain molding. Unfortunately, orange is a hard color to find in good original shape. It tends to fade from orange to yellow. It took me years but I was able to piece together a decent original orange interior for my cruising wagon. Just keep searching. Good luck to you.
