Okay, I have one more stupid question...
what makes this UNRESTORED, PAINTED, MODIFIED ENGINE car worth 50k more than Stefano's L78 ?? I swear, I must be in the dark ages... 2 Yenko decals, some glue on door trim and a LOT of dirt add's 80k to the value of a documented, and fully restored or original, mint condition SS350 or L34 4 speed car? ![]() Jim

If you have to ask...you'll never understand.

Marlin, I agree on thinking that a restored Deuce would be in the $150K range. Add the original owner and paperwork and it's that much better.

[/ QUOTE ] Does buying the car from the original owner add value? [/ QUOTE ] Original owner adds some value for a select few people, especially if they have other cars that were also purchased from original owners. It's a very short list however, and the premium attached varies by the individual. (It's an intangible item that is hard to value.)
