I talked to the insurance co I am with now and they will not
( NOT ) insure a car that is not in running order or should I say in the process of being restored and scattered all over three states.The last time I changed insurance they insured my 67 RS SS that was a nice driver I had probably 10 grand in and would not insure my 69 RS SS L89 car that was on a rotissery that I had spent probably 20 grand on,also another thought is that they will not insure ATV`s and things like that in your garage.I have State Farm .

Nice site. I plugged in a couple of my cars and cars I restored to see how accurate they were as I had my doubts. Amazingly, they were pretty darn good. The LS-6 came out at $80k which is actually higher than I had thought and my SS427's came out in the $14-16k range which is just a little low in my opinion. The only disappointment is when my SS427's were listed under 'Passenger cars' instead of Muscle cars. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/frown.gif[/img] Maybe they should have a heading for 'Barges'.

I have a 68 Z28 that went through Diamond Certification in 2001. It was scored as Level One-Junior. I have an appraisal from Mac Neish. The NADA value is 10,000 HIGHER than the one from Jerry........Tony

Thanks for the heads up. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/laugh.gif[/img] Probably rated higher in the barge section anyway. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

Rick, can you tell us about your LS6? Obviously the values on these are going way up with the rest of the "supercars", but, I'm surprised any chart would show 80. Are they finally catching on?

Mike...I went to Nada guides and plugged in a LS6 Chevelle with Cowl induction and high retail is 81,330.00.

Mike, unfortunately, the LS-6 is not mine, just one I restored for a customer in Minnesota. It was the Shadow Grey LS-6 in the 4 car Chevelle display at VetteFest. 3 different appraisers put the value around 15% less than what NADA's numbers are at. As of late, the top dollars I have heard given for the LS-6's have been in the neighborhood of $65K or just a little higher. There have been exceptions to that rule on some really odd cars. I have been restoring, documenting and tracking the LS-6 for over 4 years now and they are doing very well as an investment for anyone that bought one in the last several years or earlier. I am on a quest to find some myself and have it narrowed down to a couple of good ones. One of which I believe I told you about privately. Could be an interesting year.
