If anything the price for a genuine one in need of restoration has dropped. Everyone was paying 10 to 15k for any old rust bucket.

I don't think prices have changed much. A good mostly original unrestored van was getting around $10k when this site started.... A carribean turquoise HX sold for 10k on eBay with faded paint and stickers, lots of dents and a little rust, L31 M21 from memory... It went back on eBay months later with the new owner wanting around 15k, don't know if it sold for that. There was also a mostly original white HX with faded paint and stickers L31 M21 that went for around $10k but that was about it.... Most were in the $3000 to $6000 range and still are today.


i don't know of any restored Sandmans getting $45k, the highest I remember was the Supermint HZ getting $38k, a nice red HJ getting $25 and a lot around the $20k mark.
