There are many older cars way past their original tag price, for basically what is a wreck.
Mokes are going for as much as 25K, and the more original the better, never see them on the road is a good sign.
Gemini, Datsun's, Cortina's...early anything is worth dollars to the right restorer / collector.
I sold a '62 Fiat Bambino with 'suicide doors' about 3 years ago that, people could not get the cash out fast enough,
with 1 Gumtree Ad it was a battle of dollars within 10min.
Went to Sydney, so that added another $1200 to the price to the new owner.
Fully restored I am under the impression it would be worth 28-35K
No telling what will be the next $ machine these days
A friend has an early Toyota Cressida in mint condition in a shed, plastic still on doors and seats from factory.
Covered in possum shit.
I keep telling him to sell it at auction, but it has sentimental value as it was his Uncles, so it gather poo along with all the other stuff
from his Aunt and Uncle. He is a lovely guy so dont get me wrong, and a bit of a hoarder like me.
