The cost of restoration is what makes most reluctant to commit to the value but the asking price is certainly fair. Unfortunately that is what makes the 27 so difficult to move. Todd’s 27 is a perfect example of the same reluctance as you need a substantial amount of cash on hand to take on such a project with no hope of recovering the investment. This is an unfortunate reality of classic boat restoration.
I see it a bit differently.

The value for lenders.

When was the last time you fished with an actuary?

Aka, we need to get the values up with Barrett Jackson for boats.
