Sandman Value?

[jennie285]

Shannons gave me "Laid up" insurance on the HJ for $25k sight unseen.
For those that don't know...."Laid Up" insurance is for when you are building your car, or have it in storage. It costs bugger all and is well worth it....in fact I'm pretty sure the extra discount I got by adding the van to my policy (already have the house and 3 other cars with them) was enough to cover the cost of the LU Insurance...or near enough to it.

We have that with our Red van also, when it is restored they look at pics and bump up the value...

Wonder what they would value my WB at. Next to nothing I suppose. Whats a more or less factory original, 253 4 speed sports dash wb worth. converted to bucket seats but done to factory specs. %100 never any rust and straight as a die.
Might ask at a car show one day.

I had my HQ insured with Shannons for $8000 and they have never even seen a photo..!

My HQ ute was accepted at 8K, unregistered and not roadworthy. I would then like to think my ute will be worth about 15K when all back together.

Hmm Laid up insurance...might be worth looking into for the Hilux. Thanks for the Info, Shannons I have heard of, Lumleys I havent..who are they underwritten by? Also FYI dont waste you time with Elders Insurance any more, they are wholly owned by QBE now.

Wouldn't the value of a Sandman also be linked to original build options? IE L31 or L32, man/auto? A L31 M20 would have to be the top of the value's, wouldn't it?

a brisbane built and stamped xx7 with l31 m21 windowless sales brochure type colour matching van would be top dog..a good example in rareness would be the chrome yellow hq i just sold..hq was only 9 months in production before hj started..
