Value on a 1993 512TR?

Is the car a salvage title because of the theft? That'll be your biggest hit.

Whats the asking price?

 

maybe it will be worth 120?

 

arent EU pre 94s like $160K with double the miles but original?

 

For what it’s worth 40,000 doesn’t get you anywhere near a full restoration...A full restoration is 100 to 300 grand in my experience… 40 thousand is a mechanical fresher and leather interior

I think that’s within an acceptable range. Are you going to keep or sell?

 

keep the SV. the SV is insane and very drivable. SV needs sport exhaust and nothing else. i like what you are doing - just be realistic with costs etc

 

Hear is the thing, putting it up on Ferrari Chat makes it a perpetual story car even with a good title. Probably better in the long run to stay off here in discussing it. Some people it will bother and some it won't but just to be safe. Its not like you are hiding anything but some things are just better not discussed. For example I could have used my car in a Dukes of Hazzard show once and jumped a creek. Even if I repair it all to spec it is a story car once I show the picture or discuss it. Lol. Good luck.

 

Second this opinion as a Diablo owner. While all Diablos are great fun to drive, the low production variants (SE30, Roadster, SV, 6.0) are sooo special and rare.

Hopefully you can keep both.....you can always take the slow train by putting $10k a year into the TR and do most of the work yourself. That is how I’m handling the refresh of my Ford GT.

 

I wouldn't buy a cheaply repaired 512TR ever.

Are you selling in America or Europe? What are the disclosure laws in Europe?

I say on paper, you might make some money, but there are better flipper opportunities that aren't going to tie up your time and money like this. 512TR parts are very rare these days.

If you are buying to own for a while, then this is a great opportunity to get in "cheap". Although buying a regular TR gets you 90% of the experience for 50% of the cost.

 

if you put it all back together correctly, and it runs well, then ultimately the history of this car will fade in importance.
the value in present usd i would estimate at about $150k.

some of this depends on who is going to do the work.....may i suggest a garage to you?

fast cars ltd is right there next to you in redondo beach, and run by a friend of mine named craig calder who is also a sponsor on here. i have seen his work (some of it went to pebble....), and he is the best guy i know to work on ferraris in socal.

having his name combined in the history of your car will help support its value.

 

Personally, I would be interested in the car as is but to each his own. Would make a neat project.

Paying someone else to do the heavy lifting...less appealing, particularly on the wallet!

 

Definitely, if you are capable of doing a lot of the work yourself it shouldn’t be too bad.

 

Nice man! Very exciting and look forward to watching the journey!!!

 

If it is not as bad as it sounds, make sure you take lots pf pictures to document what condition the car was in before the restoration.

What color is it?

 

make sure you verify that with the state and not CafFax, most states for recovered thefts are all salvage titles that later get turned into 'previous salvage title'.
