We can’t find much information on the value of our lil hound dog truck, does anyone here have any information on the value or have seen one for sale and if so how much. The title says it’s a 71

Welcome to The Samba.
It is very difficult to put a dollar value on a specialized & custom created kit car. It's all going to boil down to the region of the country and how lucky you are in finding a buyer. It's a cool looking VW but after the car show is over and you are driving home from the ice cream stand all you have is a VW Bug. It would be a huge challenge to even make a reasonable guess at a value.

This person emailed me too and I told them to post in the Forums.
My best guess was to take a similar condition year Beetle and assign that value but I wasn't sure if that would be low or high.
Opinions on that method are welcome...
It's definitely a unique vehicle so will probably require a specific buyer.

Its like the old saying "whatever the buyer is willing to pay"...... Put it up with a price and include best offer statement.... IF you get a decent offer you feel is legitimate, then that is the value....
I was a bit surprised to see a fully restored Meyers Manx in original gelcoat on the market for $38,000.... Sort of made me rethink the value (up) of my copy...

That is a great looking conversion. I think you should put it on Ebay, put a reserve on it and see who will bid what. I bet it sells quickly....whether you get the price you want.....

Any pics of the back & engine bay? Rear bumper looks a bit strange from the side view.

I bet the bumper is attached to the engine cover and is not shut in the side pics.
