Classic car pricing is dependent on a variety of factors – chief among them age of the car, the condition of the car, the existence of any special features on the car, and most important – scarcity.

Sellers and buyers can often arrive at a consensus on classic car pricing by consulting the various online vehicle vehicle valuation guides, price guides, and by talking to banks and industry professionals. Usually, however, the starting point for classic car pricing is looking up its blue book value. Once you have this, you can begin your negotiations in earnest. When many car enthusiasts are trying to determine the current market price of a classic car, one of the first places they will go to is the Gold Book.

This book has been around for many decades and the publishers are some of the best experts on values of classic cars.
