My car's value is a mystery
Asked by Cassie Jul 13, 2021 at 12:52 AM about the 1991 Chevrolet Lumina Euro Coupe FWD
Question type: Shopping & Pricing
1991 Chevy Lumina Euro 3.1 , 68,000 original
miles. Thousands of dollars in repairs in 4 years.
Finally found a shop that nursed her back to
health. My first appointment with them I made the
statement "i hate to put pressure on you but you
are her last hope". Sweeeeet! Job well done JK's.
I've hit a brick wall on putting a value on her. Do I
have to hire an appraiser to get a true value. Or ...??

Maybe $1,500 on a good day. Hiring an appraiser would be a waste of money.
Spending 5 grand on a 1 grand car does not make a 6 grand car, it makes a 1 grand car.
Remember, you are still trying to peddle a 30 year old car no matter what you have invested in parts. Different story if the car had some collector value but a Chevy Lumina Coupe does not make the grade. It is not worth the sum of its parts.
