My point is Hagerty valuation is a broad brush approach that some take literately.

Still original #1 #2 or #3, big value difference vs restored to original #1 and excellent aging original vs aging older restored in #2 or #3 categories. Restored cars are worth less than originals mainly because they are not truly original anymore. Sympathetically freshened up originals that go from #3 to #2 or from #2 to #1 just are better cars to many knowledgeable buyers as they are preserved and did not need to be completely refurbished, refinished , or worse yet pieces were used from other cars to make it a complete.car needed because of accident or deteriorated so badly they are not reusable. Hagerty does not clarify that difference, which I believe causes some of the problems when people try to place a value with buying or selling. I do not do appraisals anymore ( I'm retired ) but these situations are why professional appraisers that are conversant in a particular model (lets say a 930 ) can be helpful if deciding to buy or sell.
