1983 Fleetwood value
 
I need help determining a value for my uncles 83 Fleetwood. It is in mint condition with less than 40k original miles. He passed away and the family wants to sell the car he was very proud of. Of course the blue book value is low but I believe a classic car in this condition is worth more than $3k. Any ideas? Thanks.

People list on ebay and other sites beautiful '80s and up cars for incredible prices 5k to 30k , do they really get them.
It would depend where car is located, one man's stellar is another's average, pictures and many views.
Reality not many people want big cars anymore, end of an era, they want look alike compact or euro looking
mercedes/bmw.
I got a '96 limo for 2.9k and seller almost couldn't give it away, he said he won't carry such cars, no one wants 'em
Another sad reality Cadillac played with engine designs and many were poor i.e. 4.1 or 4100, even my '80 368/6liter was
not powerfull enough and that "C4" carborator was touchy.
My '96 has 80k miles and yet little things are always breaking, 3 windows I've repaired myself, but if I had to go to shop or dealer
it might be hundreds.Headliners, some paint colors were weak, radio dated, window door trunk motors/solenoids break, front end parts getting
hard to find.
That car has to be mint clean nice and maybe you'll find right person or test the waters and wait, else just move it

If I'm not messing up something right now, if your car is old, you have to pay more for an insurance. It’s a weird system, I agree, but the point is that those old and even vintage vehicles, like your Cadillac, are very expensive in service so a reparation on this car would cost a decent amount of cash. Anyway, if you are ready to spend a little money, you can check for the best solution here find more. What you will find here is a platform where you can compare more pretty cheap insurance companies and see all their advantages and disadvantages. It’s fair to say that you will also need to check it yourself, but at least having a pal to help you with this is appreciated.
