How do we value our cars?

I have checked with the Insurance Agent and the value was stated at 18-20k. I priced it there because at the time on Hagerty the high water mark was 28k I believe and the low was around 16k. I figured mine wasn't perfect nor terribly rare but it is (was) a nice example. And with what I had in it plus my labor 18-20k was about right.

I want to fix it but I think in the end I may just roll this into another project or a finished car. Either way I plan to keep it and maybe down the line I will get the parts and fix it right.

Lets hope the insurance company will come back with some good news. I appreciate every bodies input. Wish me luck.


If you have an agreed value policy with your insurance company then you have something to work with anything short of that you may be in deep dodo.

As an antique policy isn't there restrictions on the use of the car? Was you using it as a daily driver?
