    Congrats!! It is a great display model, one of my favorites. Pocher made millions of these in white, so the values are not as high a one would think ($300 perhaps), but don't worry about value, build it and display it!! Here is a photo of one of one I did years ago for a client.

    I think $300 is a pretty good value for this model.....especially since I paid $32 bucks for it !!! I just couldn't believe the price! A few years ago I found a Pocher F40 at an antique mall in a small town about 10 east of my small town...I paid $135 for it and thought that was a great deal. But $32 for this model is really over the top!! It's not often that I have any good luck...but I sure did this time!!

    Stephane....I have another Pocher white TR convertible already assembled that I may sell. It's condition is about an 8 out of 10. What would be a fair asking price?

    Built ones don't go as high as the kits, I would list it on Ebay and let it go, I will bid on it up to $150.

    Yeah I couldn't believe the price either! I had some serious doubts that the item was really a Pocher, but bought it just in case. When the package finally arrived you can imagine how happy I was to see that is was indeed a Pocher!

    Now I'm debating if I should leave it "as new" in the box, or actually assemble it. I mean...I already have one of these on the shelf, but it needs restoration. I've thought about redoing that old one in silver or black just for kicks. Decisions.....decisions......

    Save it...they are getting rarer and rarer (especially in unbuilt good condition), If you want to restore the other one, just get another older built version or contact Stephane for parts! A built one will never become as valuable as an original unbuilt kit!
