I think it is obvious to us vanners that we have never been concerned with the $$$ value of a vehicle or we would not invest our time, souls and money into something that typically only has real value to the one who built it. If you are concerned about a return on investment, build a street rod.

LOL

I've known many people who got less than half of what they had invested in their street rods when they sold them.


If you want to make money on cars, open a dealership and sell new ones.

Cool, what's the name of the magazine? When I look for Peterson, I don't find anything relevant to Vanning.

edit: My bad, got it. If someone has the magazine, please let me know smile
