Thread: Putting a value of your car

Tweet

I usually refer to actual car sale prices. I have used Goggle to locate lists of these. Try searching for different phrases. The shorter, the better. I would start with cars with the same basic body style, then look at the extras on both to try to arrive at a "real world" value.

thanks for the tips. i'm not really motivated to sell, but it's starting to creep into my mind. for the last 6 years, i've wondered why so many other builders build something sell it, then start another. i always thought i'd be too emotionally invested to be able to get rid of it. well, now that i am 99.9% complete i see why most of those guys did it. money. i've put in nearly 40K in my car, and i'd love to keep it forever, but i want to keep building cars, and i don't have a money tree.

everyone asks me, "how much would you sell it for?"...not that they are interested, just nosey. lately, i've been thinking about how much it would take for me to say "sold!"

i haven't seen tons of cars, but i am realistic about where it stands on the craftsmanship totem pole. it isn't perfect, but it looks good where it counts. it's all black, so it's never going to look dated. plus, it doesn't have a 350 chevy in it.
