If it's a Dream & a Keeper......it's Worth what's put into it. Monetary value is no longer priority. I'd love to do my version of a 68 Coronet, knowing that it would absorb more than what the market would handle........another car I'd like to do is a 68 Torino my way, knowing it would take more to do than what it could be sold for.......depends on how much Love One has I suppose. I want a ride that is mine, my ideas.....the thought of buying a hi performance carbon copy new car doesn't work for me.....anybody can have it as long as they got the dough......lacks imagination in my bible. Tailor Your own, nobody else has it, not quite like Yours......I hate the way cars are built now & they are all way too HEAVY. New Corvette 3200 lbs. New Challenger, close to 4500. My old 68 post coupe, 440 trim,,318 Coronet....shipping weight,,, 3235 lbs. We're going backwards on that playing field.........think about how much faster, better handling & stopping a Hellcat would be if it shed a 1000 lbs....fast would get a hell of a lot faster.
As long as there is original thinking People, the Hobby will not die.
