Today, I was contacted by my insurance agent requesting the value of my 914. I have no idea what to tell him. I have been following values however since my is modified, I have no idea. I really don't care what it is worth because the car is worth a million bucks to me. I do not plan on ever selling my 914.
I think that he is requesting the value because there is a new program that will increase my coverage and decrease my rates however I think that the car must be worth more than $5k. Car info- 1973 914 (setup for autox) "10 foot" paint (looks great from 10 feet, looks ok from closer- a few chips here and there) As close to no rust as 914 gets Pretty much the entire car is either brand new or freshly rebuilt with the exception of the paint (that will occur next winter) 1.8 base engine converted 2.27l (78.5mm crank/96mm jugs) 2.0l heads dual weber 40 idf's msd 6al ext oil cooler adjustable koni's all around Fiberglass bumpers Yes the 2.0l fuchs in the pics are fake, I do have originals (there are many other changes but the above is the major stuff that I can think of) The interior of the car is very clean and looks nice however it is not even close to stock. I do not have a pic. There are two corbeau racing seats, momo steering wheel, sabelt harnesses, no carpet, a bunch of gauges and thats about it. The pics are from a few weeks ago. I have several different exhaust other than pictured. I also do not have the passenger seat mounted. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated. Attached image(s)

yep as dave said it's all about price varification/documentation. if it's agreed value, shoot to the high end. the car market tho seems to have taken a 50% +- hit like houseing IMHO. insurance has been butt sore on some cars payouts in the past when values were going stupid crazy, i see why they're all going to agreed value. my old mustang i just sold at barrett-jackson netted me WAY less than the agreed value i had on it, thats how bad the car market is now.
ithe 914 sure looks solid on the outside, from that limited info. i would guess you could sell them on up to 9 or 10k (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) do the leg work for them, it makes there job easier and is usually more $$$ |
