Default Re: Does Original Paint add to the value of a car

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: njsteve</div><div class="ubbcode-body">I can tell you that I just paid about 25% more for my 73 SD455 because it has its original paint, fully intact and is completely unrestored. I was the first guy on the seller's doorstep with cash in hand, and there was a line of guys after me trying to get that same car. So yes, a car is worth a whole lot more in its original finish, to a whole lot of people out there. </div></div>

Great example Steve! Like my cousin said...&quot;They're only original once!&quot; [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/scholar.gif[/img]
