Let's say your hypothetical well taken care of restored vehicle has a market value of $10k, let's call it Car A. Now let's say it cost $15k in parts and labor to fix up the one that was sitting in a swamp, Car B, thanks to extensive rust and basically every single thing besides the frame being a complete loss. Good, so now you have two cars of the same model in comparable conditions, Car A as we said before is valued at $10k, so how much is Car B valued at?
>w-well I spent $15k so-
Wrong. It's worth $10k. What you spent is irrelevant, what matters is how much the market will pay for one in that condition, if you spent more on restoring it than a good condition one is worth that's your problem. In the same line of though unmodded cars tend to be valued higher than modded ones, you can drop thousands tuning the shit of a Crown Vic and slapping some sikk bodykits on it, but that's more likely to make its value go down rather than up.
