Philip--
I'm not even sure...it just generally seems to be the case that a stock restored car brings a bit of a premium over something modified, however well the mods are done and however practical they truly are. Add into the mix the possibility of someone falling head over heels in love with a particular vehicle, stock or not, and having to have it...or a custom job suiting a new owner perfectly. I've seen both sides of that locally within SDC: a fairly-wild custom Daytona that's so much to the current owner's taste it doesn't get any love at all on the market (and the owner's had it on offer intermittently for years); and a resto-modded '31 Dictator that was exactly what another local SDCer was seeking in a prewar car, but had likewise not been looked at too hard by others because it wasn't stock...it's an interesting business.

BTW, by "it" I meant the one in the Kijiji ad, not the one I'm building. Of course, mine will be priceless!

I'm curious tho...Since I'm in the process of building a 57 that will have a 305 TPI Firebird engine and 700R4 tranny, what valuation would you place on it?
