not sure if this is the right section but can i get some opinions on how much this van is worth, needs a lot of work and is missing glass, the tops of the doors and some other bits, the chassis and most of the cab looked pretty solid when i viewed it but it does need new under sills both sides. i didn't view the van back as it was stored somewhere else but the owner told me it needs some guttering doing and an area around one of the rear corner.

opinions please

well there looks to have been a lot of work done in the past and if its all complete then i would say its worth the £700.00 but it may go higher
but we are in a credit crunch so you may be lucky
the gutters will be the hardest to do and most expensive if you get some one to do them
but its only worth what one is prepared to pay
it is difficult to say
if it was all ready done and mot`d then upwards to £4000.00
so there are tthe 2 ends of the scale
btw complete wreecks are fetching £300.00 to £500.00

Its very hard to tell from pictures and having seen it (and with a view to buying) you would have to make your own mind up.
Personally I'd put it around about the £500 mark assuming that theres not a great deal of welding needing doing. The slotmags may persuade me to spend a few extra sheckles though

I expect it could sell at that price but you'd be better off time wise and financially getting something needing far less work, IMHO.
