: Need Help Determining Value of 2 EC and 1 Chev

Let me start off by saying that I tried to find similar posts like this and I do realize that it will be difficult to determine value for these cars. I know any vehicle is worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it, but I am just looking for a baseline. The two El Caminos will be put on E-bay most likely and the Chevelle may or may not end up on E-bay. Here's the story:

My dad passed away a couple of months ago rather unexpectedly. He was a Chevelle man from the beginning. He bought a 66 Malibu brand new shortly after high school and still had it to the end. He wanted me to have it so I will have it until it's my time to go. He also had two 66 El Caminos in his possession. I have a 69 SS Chevelle that I had planned on restoring, but I don't need it if I have his (my wife would agree).

As I said before, we plan to put the El Caminos on E-bay (maybe as a pair?). If I can't find anyone interested in the Chevelle locally, it too will go on E-bay. The main purpose of this first post is to find out what information I need to gather and what pictures I need to take in order for you guys (that know a lot more about Chevelles than I do) to form an opinion as to what the value of these cars may be. The money from the El Caminos will go to my mom, so I want to make sure she gets all that's coming to her. I'm using the money from my 69 to help pay for a new paint job for my dad's car, so I would like to get all I can from it. Once I have a list made of what information is needed and what pictures I need to take, I will post it all back here. Thanks in advance for everyone's help.

That pair of 66 Elco's is pretty much worthless. I'll save you the trouble of taking them to the wrecker and even give you 50.00 or so. :D

If the EC's are half clean and drivers they would bring 3500/ea on the west coast...sight unseen. The 69 is totally dependant on how original it is and what options...anywhere from 5K(clean body, no original powertrain) to 35K(numbers match in nice condition)

You do know that on Ebay you can look over closed auctions? Pull up for similar condition/model vehicles and you will get some idea. Be honest with condition and that should get you in the range.
