Hi old skool,
price, value and worth are words that are used interchangeably but they are not the same at all.
Let's suppose you just finished building a nice chaindrive XS11 conversion.
What was it's price?
Say a grand for the OK-ish runner you started with, another grand for parts, a third grand for custom machining plus 2 years of burning the midnight oil to build the thing.
What is it's value?
How can you measure the pride of building and owning such a unique machine?
But what is it worth?
That's the exact amount that someone will pay you for it.
I'll go $800 and take a chance the engine is salvageable.
That's not insulting or hurtful, that's the truth.
