We are picking up a TR4 on Friday that has sat since 1994. It is in pieces: fenders are off and stripped to bare metal, rest of the car is stripped. Body panels are in pretty good shape, no collision damage visible. Needs new interior, tires, engine is out and apart, almost ready for rebuild. Non-OD transmission. Lots of new parts but the rubber bits probably should not be used since they are 20 years old. We are trying to decide to make it a driver, or sell it as parts.
Minimum investment to make it a driver:
engine and tranny- $3K
Interior- $2.5 K
paint- $ 2K even if I paint it myself, needs a value
Bumpers, ok, polish and see how they look.
Needs new dash, or new veneer
Radiator???
So lets say at least 10K to make it a good driver. What would it sell for these days? Or what would it sell for as a project?
