Re: How much would you guess these trucks are worth?

I think your arguement,bet,or whatever is pointless.First of all,your prices are in the same neighborhood.But mostly,you can`t say how much "they" are worth.You need to discuss how much "it" is worth.Every truck has it`s individual value based on condition,extent/quality of work,looks,model,factory option and/or upgrades/modifications,etc.You could pick an original factory model,like a`68 short fleet 396 CST,fully loaded and attempt to come close to a national average of what they`d go for.But,anything custom is all alone.There are tiers of ranges for values,like $8-10,$25-30,$40-50 thousand bucks.That`s the best anyone can do.Book value?That`sall b.s. on these trucks and goes in one ear and out the other for me.That just gets guys asking too much because they think they have something better than they do.I don`t put stock in appraisals either.That`s just for replacement cost for the insurance company.
