A topic that can easily bring a variety of opinions and nothing wrong with that.

I for one think most all of the GUIDES out there are BS and give most buyers and sellers an unrealistic idea of a car’s value. Restored being the main guides.

There are so many variables that create a value: and most of these guides use a Broad Brush and don’t factor in all those things that can’t be known until you know the car being discussed.

Original sheetmetal. Color Combos. Drivetrain options. Seat options. Docs. Verified Numbers and Docs. Quality and Correctness of restoration. Repro parts vs Original and NOS. Known Owner hx. How long ago painted/restored. The variables go on and on. Ballpark values can be had but in my experience... the GUIDES are not worth it to most. Just my opinion
