IMO, a 100 point, concours winning restoration might bring $30K today, but
to get much more than that it would have to be a "special interest" car.
Modifications are, at best, "value neutral", unless perhaps you manage to
find a buyer that wants exactly those changes, or the car is modified for a
particular vintage racing class, etc.

Hi Guys,
For John's TR3 value here in the USA I would confirm what Randall has
stated. I was following values and sale prices last year rather close for I
had a
buyer interested in a TR3B that I was trying to help. One TR3B from Texas
sold for around $32,500 in the spring of 07. This car was at one time a
premier Concours Car immaculately restored as original and meeting the special
interest criteria. I knew the car for I lost to it at a TRA National. The
only
time I ever lost in a competition with my TR3B. It was not close, I was
massacred. After the sale I was fortunate to see the car for a guy here in NE
Ohio purchased it. It had gone away some from it's Glory days but still was
in
very good shape.
Regards,
Darrell
