Value of your 1959 corvette.
by: George

Hi. I have a 1959 that I just restored.

The value of your 1959 depends on many things, original condition, options, rust or none, numbers matching,no hit car, parts missing or not correct/original.

If it is an all original car but worn and tired, (a type 2) then I would say the value would be between 35k on low side to 65k on high side depending on my comments above.

A good way to track value is to monitor cars for sale in Hemings and Ebay. Knowing the condition of your car (and my comments above) and try to match it with the many for sale can give you a good idea of its value (best if you track this for a few months).
This does not tell you what the car sold for but what the seller was "asking for".
