I'd say so,, its definitely a rare car. Make sure you document the entire recovery process. Magazines such as Musclecar Review and Hemmings Muscle Machines love doing the barn find type of stories, especially if there are lots of photos. Should the car end up being restored,, does it need it?,, they would certainly run a feature on a car like this, I'd think. Good luck with your find,, I get both of those magazines every month, so perhaps, some day in the future, I'll read about this barn find '70 RR.

Hard to say what it is worth. Convertibles are especially valuable to a few. Most are looking for the higher performance engine options like 440 or 426 Hemi, not the 383. A key factor will be how much has to be spent to bring it into top condition vs. what it will likely sell for.
