Value of 1930 Coupe Body
 

So I bought this car body 30 years ago and still do not have it finished. It seems like every time I sell parts the people always want to buy this body. I keep saying no but would like to know the the approx value of it is ? Most of the body work is done, new roof installed and all new glass. So what is just the body worth ? I have the running gear done and motor rebuilt and would like to finish this car in the next two or three years.

Sounds like it's almost done:)

For sure you should finish it and enjoy it.
Then if you sell, at least it would be worth much more than just a body by itself, or a pile of parts.

I guess I should tell you I have always had a model a driver and still do. The coupe reminds me of the first model a coupe that I purchased while in the military. I think the cost was about $500 back in the the 1960s. Boy I sure had a lot of fun in the car.

Probably true for a model A person but sadly most like twice that for a hot-rodder. I was offered more than $7000 for my rustless Tudor - body only, keep the rest of the junk. I have no regrets declining the offer.
