Collector Car & Truck Market Guide
Condition Guidelines
#1 Excellent: A close to perfect original or a very well restored
vehicle. Generally a body-off restoration, but a well done body-on
restoration that has been fully detailed
may qualify. The vehicle is stunning to look at and any flaws are
trivial and not readily apparent. Everything works as new. All equipment
is original, NOS, or excellent
quality reproductions. (See show car description in How to Use section.)
#2 Very Good: An extremely presentable vehicle showing minimal wear, or
a well restored vehicle. Runs and drives smooth and tight. Needs no
mechanical or cosmetic
work. All areas (chassis not required, but may be) have been fully
detailed. Beautiful to look at but clearly below a #1 vehicle.
#3 Good: Presentable inside and out with some signs of wear. Not
detailed but very clean. Body should be straight and solid with no
apparent rust and absolutely no
rust-through anywhere. Shiny, attractive paint but may have evidence of
minor fading or checking or other imperfections. Runs and drives well.
May need some minor
mechanical or cosmetic work but is fully usable and enjoyable as is.
#4 Fair: runs and drives OK but needs work throughout the vehicle. Body
shows signs of wear or previous restoration work. Any rust should be
minimal and not in any
structural areas. Cosmetics, body, and mechanics all need work to some
degree.
#5 Poor: In need of complete restoration, but is complete and not a rust
bucket beyond repair. May or may not run and drive. Not roadworthy.
Parts or Salvage: Incomplete vehicle most useful for parts. Generally,
take 40-50% of the #5 value.
