IMO, a  100 point, concours winning restoration might bring $30K today, but
to get  much more than that it would have to be a "special interest"  car.
Modifications are, at best, "value neutral", unless perhaps you manage  to
find a buyer that wants exactly those changes, or the car is modified  for a
particular vintage racing class,  etc.

Hi Guys,
For John's TR3 value here in the USA I would confirm what Randall has  
stated.  I was following values and sale prices last year rather close for  I had a 
buyer interested in a TR3B that I was trying to help.  One TR3B  from Texas 
sold for around $32,500 in the spring of 07.  This  car was at one time a 
premier Concours Car immaculately restored  as original and meeting the special 
interest criteria.  I knew  the car for I lost to it at a TRA National. The only 
time I ever lost in a  competition with my TR3B.  It was not close, I was 
massacred.  After  the sale I was fortunate to see the car for a guy here in NE 
Ohio  purchased it.  It had gone away some from it's Glory days but still was in  
very good shape.
Regards,
Darrell
