Vintage Cars: 1955 chevy, chevy bel air, 1955 chevy bel air

Question
I was wondering the value of a 1955 Chevy Bel Air 4 door, with a 6 cylinder is.  The car has approximately 30,000 original miles.  It has been parked in a garage since 1960.  He has had no attention in that time period.  It is original.

Answer
Joe,

Value depends on condition and a number of other factors, so I can't give you a accurate estimate. If you take a look on Ebay, you'll find a number of similar cars that have sold for a variety of prices. This might give you some idea.

Can you validate the mileage? Do you have the original paperwork/title? Service records? Cars with the records are worth more. Is the paint original and in good shape? Why was the car parked? Is it on operating order?

Answering these questions, then looking at similar cars that have sold, should help you get a better idea of the value.

Regards,
