Research SNAKE the careful way

Start with the casting details. Compare close versions next. Open the value board only after the match is solid.

Read video notes

Start with the main photo and the specs card. Compare the wheel, base, color, and tampo against known versions. When the match is clean, open the price guide. If the car still looks close to another version, add sharper photos before you trust a price.

Exact variation matching

  • Use 1970 - 1983 as the production-window check.
  • Cross-check Description, Snake II before calling the variation exact.
  • Use the open page for details. Members can open sold comps and value ranges.
