Default Lincoln V12, Ford Y block

I was visiting my sister on her farm in Washington. digging in her junk pile by the shop I found a Y block 4bbl manifold and wondered if it is worth something? I was going to urge her to eBay it hahaha.

Also, she has 2 Lincoln Zephyr bodies and a complete sedan with a V12 in it, great shape. Where might I go to get values on this stuff. Neat stuff sitting in there. Looks like the sedan has been in a barn since 1963. Surface rust, no interior or floorboard.

NADA Collector Car Bluebook is online. But for the last few years, it seems that some of their valuations are ridiculously high.

That Zephyr is worth some serious coin if it's in any shape at all. Does it have the 2 spd rear diff?

Well I didn't think to look

One is really just a shell, the other was missing the top and engine but was mostly there otherwise I believe.

I believe there actually was a solid project V12 Zephyr for sale over there recently, look through the classified section. It would be a good point of reference for a sale price.

Dunno. I'm doing research. Ultimately that's up to the owner.

I'm still tickled from seeing the pushbutton suicide doors, but yeah. I'm also wondering what a flathead V12 sounds like in person.
