Re: blue book pricing
If they don't do any investigating on the vehicle, then you may get away with a "stated" value. But I would assume that if it's a $30k street rod and you tell them it's worth $8k they may look into that! I guess what I'm tryig to say is, if you state a value wth in "reason" you should be ok.
he should MAKE SURE there are no outstanding Mechanics liens that have not been executed ![]() My dads friend was going through a divorce many years ago, and he sold his '56 vette and Alchol funny car to his buddy and chaged over the titles. He literally sold his vette for $20 and the Funny Car for $40. I don't know if you can get away with that now, however, I've seen a friend recently that had a mysterious mechanics lien show up on his junk ... I don't know how that worked in his favor but it did. I don'e even really know if I helped you out at all or even answered your question for that matter.......hope it helps! ![]()

Re: blue book pricing
They`re hip to that whole liquidating to get it away from the "X" game.The best thing would be to give us your info,if it`s a 67/72,and get all of our opinions.This site is as much of an authority(if not more)as anywhere.Take all the replies and save them.Refer the bloodsuckers to this website if thay don`t accept it.Also gather simular sales on Ebay,since it will show that it actually sold for that.Some stuff goes way low,some crazy high.But,usually the real high-end stuff that goes high.Prices are soft these days,that`s in your favor.Try listing it for sale where you figure they`ll value it and watch it not sell.List it here.We`re all tight wads

Re: blue book pricing
Just total it, and the insurance company will tell you that your truck is worth about 3k

Re: blue book pricing
I don't know that "totalling it" is the answer.....but he is on the right track. What would your insurance agent say it was worth? "Technically" it isn't worth any more than that. If it were "stolen"....you would split a check for....whatever he says. That is it's value, if you "lost" it any other way, that is what you would get.

Re: blue book pricing
nada.com has classic car values. I think our trucks go from low 6500 to high 28000 or so thats per their conditions.

Re: blue book pricing
Unless the vehicle has been restored/restomodded/etc., we usually tend to value them higher than they are if on the market. I don't want to take away from them, but I know I have more in mine than anyone will pay. This may be the value to me, but not to anyone else. The "stated value" is for replacement purposes. Market value is pricing it for sale. When we shop for them, we all want to get them as cheaply as possible, while the seller is going for the gold.
Don't do what a guy I worked with did and sell it to a buddy for a dollar. The judge wasn't buying that ploy and he had to ante up what the judge decided it was worth....a '62 Ford.....35 years ago. Then again, another buddy didn't want to lose his '32 Ford Cabriolet in the court-ordered auction, so he cut it in half in the door opening, and scattered the halves to confuse the buyers. It worked. After the sale, he gathered the pieces (frame, fenders, body, etc.) and stored them in a shed where they stayed for 20 years until we got them out on New Years Day, 2002. Just be careful in your "hypothetical" situation.....

Re: blue book pricing
to be a little more clear with the situation.........I can keep the truck..that is fine with her attorney.......just that if i do i have to buy her out of 1/2 of the estimated value.
The truck is not a full resto ( listed below) mechanicaly very sound and that is where the money is spread out over the last 5 years of pocket allowance money. purchase was 1800 lotsa hard work somewhere around 4000 invested in parts (low estimate) doesn't have glass not driveable mostly a pile of parts now bolted togehter in one piece I am guessing about 2500 dollars to her shouldn't be to far off target interesting subject huh?!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ![]()

Re: blue book pricing
so what you have here is an investment in labor and personal time way more so than cash outlay.....................I have been told that those subjects can and are considered by judges

Re: blue book pricing
Most of us on here would not pay more than $1500 for a "basket case" truck unless there are exceptional circumstances (Cheyenne Super Big Block, etc. etc.)
That would be my argument -- unless the truck is assembled and usable, it is nothing more than a $1500 basket case pile of parts -- if that --- no matter what you have put into it I think it is sad that she is trying to jack you for your old truck too, but i had a friend whose wife wanted 1/2 the value of an '89 S10 he kept at his lake house

Re: blue book pricing
Divorce is a real bummer man and it can be hard mentally. Whatever happens with the truck, you will always have your health and well being and that is the most important. It may be a bummer to start a project over, just make sure to keep your head up!!

Re: blue book pricing
if you have close friends, or family members sell everything to them, (On Paper)... when the divorce is final, have it all put back in your name

Re: blue book pricing
Not figuring in your time is to your advantage(for once).I doubt there is any true source to obtain value on a project.I think it`s whatever you say,pretty much.And,who can tell the difference between a cleaned up and painted part from a new painted part.The cost of paint on parts shouldn`t go towards the value either way.I wouldn`t reveal every dime in parts for that reason.There would have been alot more to split if the divorce timed out later.
I think you`re being more than fair at $2,500.You`d have a tough time getting $5,000 out of it,now.Although it would be worth it.Do we get all we put in when tey`re done?

Her lawyer was trying to value the 67 at $6,000. Was about the same condition as yours at the time. Non driveible, no paint, but a recently rebuilt motor. We settled at $3000 as the value. Kinda sucks to have to split the value of something that you know she has absolutely no interest in. |

Re: blue book pricing
I`d say more,but I`m in the same boat at the moment.Basically,I`ve been waiting to move on with projects until I can call them my own.I do know a guy that just paid cash for parts including having a motor built while he was in the same situation.He couldn`t wait to set the motor in the frame along with some old manual transmission out of a car.He said they couldn`t really get a value on a bare frame.At least not enough to make it a consideration in the assets.He also had some rusty old shortbed 4wd that didn`t run most people would expect to see junked.It was just something that would need removed when the house got sold and divided.He offered to take care of that hastle.

Re: blue book pricing
Just a bit of friendly advice and no offense meant, but DO NOT discuss how you would like to manipulate the settlement price of joint assets of a divorce on a public Internet forum.
They can and DO subpoena your ISP and cell phone company for such things. |
