What is a 34 Vickie complete unrestored worth

[roadster36]

I was looking for a '33/'34 Victoria to build a while back. After I did my homework and looked at the prices for paint, interior, chrome work,materials, etc. I decided to buy one already done. I have not regretted it for one minute. The market and hobby have drastically changed in the last few years. If you are lucky and frugal you will be only be in that car for double what you could have bought a completed car for. Look at the prices on Barrett Jackson, Mecum, etc.and you will see well done cars selling at a huge discount to build cost. I have built a lot of cars over the years and would not even consider doing another ground up project. I have been offered "super" deals on some pretty solid '34's and passed because the numbers are not there. I never did it to make a buck, but knowing you are going to take a bath from the start is not a good motivation, at least for me. Buy one done and go visit your buddies while they are working on their projects. You will be a lot happier.- Dennis
