1925 Maxwell

[Guest]

all original and still runs I would like to know if there are anymore around and what kind of value to place on this automobile.

Although they are not CCCA Classics, there are quite a few Maxwell's around. To determine a rough idea of price, you might want to consult the Old Cars Price Guide which is published by Old Cars Weekly located in Iola WI. <P>Keep in mind that condition is a huge factor in the price of a collector car. What they call a "Number 1" car is a car that looks and drives "AS NEW," showing no wear or tear, dirt grime or any signs of being used. Most cars that people call "nice" are Number 3's. That's about the equivalent of a modern car that is a year or two old that has been maintained very well.<P>If you need a valuation for tax purposes or any other legal proceeding, I'd suggest you have it professionally appraised. There are quite a few appraisers who advertise in Hemmings Motor News. Their web site is <A HREF="http://www.hemmings.com" TARGET=_blank>www.hemmings.com</A> <P>You might want to place your question on the AACA or VMCCA Forums, since their focus is larger and more likely to be seen by others who own a Maxwell.
