Price check on a 79 911 SC "Euro"

Hello all,

I have a neighbor that is wanting to let his 1979 911 SC go.

He has owned it for about 10 years and it has about 100k miles.

He explained it was a "Euro" model, meaning the speedometer is in KM's not MPH.

The car is rather clean with A/C and leather and a non-sunroof car.
Color is factory white.

He's thinking possibly $20k to $25k.

Can I get your opinions on the value?

thanks!

Coupe or Targa?

Depends on the state of the engine and transmission.

These are going $15-30k based on mechanical and cosmetic condition and history.

Bone stock, very clean, functioning A/C, rebuilt trans & engine with new headstuds, no accidents or rust, $25-$30k

No evidence of mechanical work, but otherwise clean -- $20-25 is about right.

Any goofiness about wrecks, ownership history, dubious mechanicals, shoddy repaints, or custom body/interior work will drop value to $15-20k.

Opinions differ about the value effect of it being a Euro. A certain plus is resale to the continent, which is sucking up 911s like they cure cancer.

No sunroof and Euro adds value (maybe 15%- 20%) assuming car is excellent and not hacked about IMHO.

I had not seen the car in person until the other day. The car is priced about right in the $15k range. It has a very poor re-pain and not the original color.

If anyone wants more detail just let me know.
