Default Re: What year and what is it worth?

If it has sentimental value to her, she will be overjoyed that you, as a family member want to do the work to get the Old Man's pride and joy cleaned up and back in running order.

It doesn't look particularly "valued" at present.

Just have a chat, and ask her what sort of figure she would be happy with, taking into consideration it is a project and there are lots of unknowns. Emphasise how much better she will feel about it when you turn up to take her for a ride in the Old Man's old truck.

Emphasise strongly that it is being kept in the family as a tribute and is not going to be sold anytime in the foreseeable future.

Hopefully she will be happy with a nominal sum as the value is in it being revived and not left to deteriorate.

Good luck with it, I'd love to see it in a better light and who knows? Maybe back up and running again in your hands.

Mart.
