Bradley GT Value

Here are a few more pictures

Heres the last pic. Sorry couldnt figure how to post more than one picture per post.

Thanks in advance for any appraisal help.

If it's running reliably with a clear title and no mechanical or electrical issues, it should easily bring from $2-3000 and possibly more, depending upon how much the buyer likes or dislikes the color, upholstery, or anything else s/he can use to convince you to lower your price.

Depending upon mileage and engine type, you could easily get more than $3000. These cars have no actual "book" value, so it's really always just a question of how good the car looks, how well it runs -- and what a buyer is willing to pay when it comes time to count the cash.

Your car looks like a very nice example of stock pre-1976 GT, complete with all the Bradley originals like the kitchen cabinet door handles, Corvette-copy windshield trim and fastback rear Plexiglas.

The only obvious fault I see is the too-close-together front bumpers, and that shouldn't cause you to take one penny less. The fix is easy by just moving the bumper tube U-bolts outward under the cowl, and repositioning the U-bolts that secure them to the front end torsion tubes. Probably take you less than an hour if the nuts aren't frozen

Very nice, clean looking car. Best of luck with the sale.

Warmest regards,

If you are looking for value to buy or sell it, I would say base price of $2000-$2500, and then depending on what type motor you are running add on another 250-1000. Just a bare stock engine case is 500, the jugs are about 200, Heads between 150 and 850 each, then add on your generator/alt., fuelsystem, ect. Depending on how you play your cards, you could basically sell the complete bradley for less than the value of the engine. If you are looking to buy, you are getting a deal on the engine and the car is free. I'm not saying to part the motor out, I'm saying look at the big picture, what all is included in what you see.

Now if you are looking at value from an insurance standpoint, it is easily worth 6.000 being "stock" and functional. any improvements should bring the value up even more.

If you are trying to sell it in Texas good luck with that, the TXDMV has been pulling (vioding)tittles on kit cars folks are trying to sell there dune buggies, sand rails and kit cars for pennies on the dollar on craigs list. Last week the TXDMV agreed to stop for now until they look into it further. But beware it may be coming to your local DMV before you know it. My Bradley is a 73 original perfect sparkel lime green gel coat with the cream white interior never been driven in the rain, all doors and glass are perfect, air conditioning, disk brakes, killer tunes, rebuit 1600 type 1 and tons of cool extras like over head dip swith pannels, electric fuel pump, empi t handel shifter, tow bar, new tires and wheels,original build sheet, etc. etc.. It needed a lot of TLC 300+ hours of labor to make it just like brand new it has been a fun trip and I do not plan on letting her go while i am still alive, anyway I paid $1900 cash and the guy wanted $3000 but you have to give and take a little. When i got her she had been sitting for a long time in storage the OD read 13 miles and a lot of NOS parts still in boxes I had to install. Good luck, your best bet is to have it seen folks tend to go nuts when they see a really cool Bradkey GT1 with a for sale sign on it.
