[A/S] Resale - restore or not?

[Terry Tyler <tylerbears@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Guy,

If it was me, the first thing I'd do is print out this website:

http://www.vintageairstream.com/rr_topics_pricevscondition.hbtml

Next, locate the exact model of your 1974 and do the math to determine 
the difference in price between "as found" and "average" condition.

Third, look at the definition of both conditions and identify exactly 
which items need to be restored, repaired or replaced.

Fourth, go to "Table C" and figure out what the list will cost.

Lastly, do the math to determine if you have any chance of being able 
to sell the 1974 for the "average" price.

This simple exercise can provide knowledgeable confidence in your 
asking price --  as well as identify which "improvements" might be 
financially beneficial to you.

None of us knows everything, but knowing what other Vintage Airstream 
owners have learned can level the playing field when dealing with 
buyers who need guidance (I'm trying to say this tactfully).   <grin>
