VY 2 SS Ute with HBD canopy - what's she worth?

[wbute]

Yeah I don't have a crystal ball. Just making a guess really.

Price guides are useless for any unusually popular vehicles. Go back to 1994 when WB Kingswood utes pulled $8-10000. The book value was $4000 based on what 6 cylinder 3 speed ones were worth. That's over a 50% difference. You had to get agreed value for insurance. They were still reasonably current then. Only 10 years old for an 84 ute. But book values didn't see somewhere like the Orange Ag college car park. There was no other type of car there. And so it went across most of rural Australia for young country blokes.
Now you can't get bugger all for a WB because the current trend is to say they are uncool and you have to have an older style front clip. Go figure. I think the VZ are going to get hit with a price drop because all their standard brothers and sisters are becoming daggy and that will drag them down.

I would beg to differ on the wb, some people on this site dont like wb nose but when was the last time you saw a tidy original wb, I have been offered offered 5 times what I paid for mine, anything original in good nick v8 holden over 30 years has a pretty reasonable price on it.

when was the last time you saw a tidy original wb,

'Bout 2 hrs ago. There's an absolute pearler parked just down the road.

I had a good one. Factory V8 Kingswood with factory GTS dash. A mate kept bugging me to sell it to him and his offer was too good to refuse.
