Mid Year Targa Top

What is a mid year targa top in need of an exterior recover worth? I see proces all over hell on these... What do they actually sell for?

Am I better off having it rebuilt and selling as restored and ready to install? This is off a 74 Targa.

a full restore by dan will run you north of $1,100.

based on dan's ebay listings $3500 is too high of a price for a restored targa top. not one of them sold, and they started at $3500.

I sold one last year for something like $550. It was structurally sound but needed a recover and some of the interior trim refurbished (straightened, reglued).

Do you want to sell it or list it forever like the one currently in the classifieds for too much money?
Based on the one I bought a few years ago for $500 delivered.:

Unrestored but useable should be $500-$800, add the cost of restoration if you have it rebuilt.

~ $800 unrestored and, I'm guessing, $2000 restored - more if it restored by Dan.
