Default Value?

I have a Co-Worker that has 2 cars that were running and driving about 10 years ago. Both are in storage inside a building. One is a 1937 Lafayette. The other is a 1937 Studebaker.

The Lafayette is all original and the last time it was running it was in the local town's parade. He says the paint is even original. The interior is suffering from old age.

The Studebaker is also original but people that rented the property broke the windows out of it.

They are long gone. He's wondering what they are worth. His father had been offered cash years back but he said no. Now he's dead years back and the cars sit.

The Model will make a big difference in value, coupe, sedan, 2 or 4 door.
Any pics?

Well, I guess they are dumber than I expected. They hauled the Studabaker to the scrap yard and sold it for 275 dollars! Arrgh! Just talked to the dumbest of the 4 brothers who was attempting to fix the door on the place I'm living at.
