Pierce-Arrows are often tough to appraise unless they are a model that

turns over often.David W. Coco’s advice about finding a car that is in

the best condition that you can afford and securing it,will keep many out

mental health facilities.On valuing the ’35.The Society knows of about 13

in various states of condition.About 875 8’s and 12’s were produced that

year(17.5 for each state if there was equal distribution).As this model

was low on the pecking order,values after restoration will probably not

recoup the investment.No.1 and 2. condition remaining cars may be counted

on one hand.My handy NADA Dec. 2008 Guide values one low at $30,100.AVG

at $45,900,and high at $66,600.Though there have been 3 that have

appeared on the market in the last year(2 sold),what are the odds of any

more coming up for sale in the near future (and in Coco advice condition)

?
