Probably because it has a 1970 chassis with the date on it

yes, the dated chassis are highly desirable by some.
and, as you can see, they will go to great lengths and spend big to get them.
I have a couple 1971 chassis.

Thanks for the explanation, I will never understand things like that. I buy something because I like it.
I guess it's the same reason some pay insane amounts for a painting that I would not give 1.00 for.
I will probably look thru my many AFX chassis now to see if any have a date on them. Means nothing to me
but I will surely sell it.

Where on the chassis would the date be located?

in the back on the bottom where it says AFX there will be a date, next to the crown gear.
only on early solid rivet AFX chassis

I looked at all my loose chassis. Will have to look at all the ones with bodies now. Can't believe anyone would pay for
something like that???

It appears that there are a lot of collectors out there and they want to have one of every variation. Kind of like coin collectors.

The only one's that old that mean anything to me are the ones that I had as a kid for sentimental reasons.....and I have both of those  . Would never sell them. |

cars however.
