I have a 1957 Starcraft speedqueen with the mahogany wood seats and oak rub rail. Anybody know what it might be worth with 1957 35 hp Johnson motor running
Oh, and some buyers will prefer the original style, 2line, pressure tank. Others will want the updated fuel pump mod you're making to the 35hp in your other topic...
That boat is priceless to the family that owned it since new. To everyone else, its just to old to be of any use.
In the last 10 years my 65 year old classic has dropped 50% in value. The market for antiques has dropped off the planet. Oh sure, the asking prices are high, but nobody is buying.
In pristine condition $1500 would be a reasonable price if someone wanted to buy it.
I can't tell you a price but there is a group of boaters who go crazy for wooden boats. Add some mahogany and a vintage motor and you might have something. Who knows until someone strokes a cheque for it.
