pricing a 1968 Beetle for sale

Nov 15, 2007 5 Replies

I can't find anything like the Kelley Blue book to know what a good price should be to see a 1968 bug in good condition with relatively low mileage. Can anyone suggest where to look for pricing guidelines or the best way to sell it.



Thanks.


You cant put a book price on a 40 year old classic car !

it has 40 years of history that will affect its value.

best way is to find your local club and get it valued.

for your area and see whatothers are asking. I think that rather than mileage, the lack of rustmight be the biggest selling point.

if you are in, or near, Virginia, it's worth a hundred bucks...if you'll take 75 i'll pick it up and park it next to my semi-custom 68!

Tell you what, I've got a 68 and I wouldn't take a penny less than $3500 and $4500 is more like it. My motor is new but the trunk lid is a aftermarket, the transaxel makes a little noise but it will last another few years. Don't give it away. I also have a 58 a transporter with double doors on each side and no side windows, It must be worth $15-$20000. My favorite is a 81 pickup with a 16V DOHC 5 speed, its worth alot more than what I could get for it $18-$2500. I only have about 5 or 6 grand in it. I also have a Viper green 75 SB worth $4500 to $6500.
