Re: [vintagvw] Appraisal value for Possible Sale of 1972 Bug
Kyle, Set up an acct with hagerty. Nice site although all the comps for Beetles were for convertibles but it helped. I guess mine would likely be a condition 2 from their descriptions. Thanks again for the lead. Mike On Tue, Jun 9, 2015 at 12:36 PM, Kyle 01ksda...@gmail.com wrote: I would check the Hagerty Web site. Good luck, it sounds like you'd have no issues selling it.

Re: [vintagvw] Appraisal value for Possible Sale of 1972 Bug
There is an independent network of vehicle appraisers and I had one of mine done about 10 years ago. The guy did not necessarily know VW buses, but had done his homework before he got here. In my opinion, his appraisal(for insurance purposes) was exactly correct. Can't remember the name of the group right now, but if you are not happy with what you find on the web, come back to me and I will look up my papers. The guy that I set up with initially offered me a job in the future. He said that it mattered not that I didn't know squat about mustangs and camaro's cause they had guys that were expert on those and would help with any appraisal.

Mike, Here ya go... http://www.i-van.org/ I am in the middle of doing a complete write up to sell my restored 78 Champagne edition bus so I had seen it in there several weeks ago. Make sure you like them and talk to them. You will pay travel expenses if there is not one close to you(I paid from Springfield missouri to Arkansas I think).

[vintagvw] Appraisal value for Possible Sale of 1972 Bug
Good morning. I am considering selling our 1972 stock Bug which was purchased new by my father-in-law in TX in 72 so wife and I are second owners. My wife and I restored the car in early 2000 and it has 110,000 miles on it and is all original except for interior upholstery which we upgraded from square weave vinyl and other necessary mechanical part replacements. Engine has never been opened up and runs well. Car has been garaged since restoration but is driven weekly. Being in Alabama there are not a lot of VW shops so what would listees recommend as the best way to get an appraised value for a possible sale as I don't really know what cars of similar age and quality are worth? Any advice would be most welcome.
