- Colin Comer knows cars. And Colin Comer knows how much your car is worth! Join him as he appraises cars for owners who have (perhaps foolishly!) agreed to let him dig into their prized collector cars and do what he does best: find their true value AND put a number on it.
In this episode, Colin’s appraising a freshly built barn find 1970 Ford F100 pickup truck and an original-owner 1988 Lamborghini LM002 aka the "Rambo Lambo." The F100 is a full resto-mod build with a brand new 5.0 Coyote engine swapped into it yet no money was wasted on nice shiny paint here, folks, so you can leave your wax at home. The LM002 has been with the original owner since new and as he puts it, was a value proposition at the time as it was the “same price as a Countach. Twice the dead cows. Twice the doors and two transmissions.” Has time been kind to this Lambo two-fer?
Colin knows what these are both worth and now you will as well. Will the owners think he’s too low or too high? Do you? Sound off in the comments section!

I'm surprised how much more the appraisal is than what the owner thought on the F100. Almost never happens, lol. It sure is a great execution. Well done, subtle and the colors work very well. As for the LM002: Wow. Probably the cleanest 1-owner example in existence. About 10 years ago, I saw one at a shop in California that the owner thought would be cool to do with Escalade headlights and some other tasteless mods. It was unsettling, to say the least. So good to see one as God, or at least Lamborghini, intended.
I have been anticipating this series and as I expected it did not disappoint. Colin and team congrats you have a winner series on your hands! Happy New Year, Dave Ochser
This sounds like a very fun series. Thanks Hagerty!!
“Open your eyes... and you’re in a friggin’ TRUCK!” That was funny!
Best program on TH-cam since Jay Leno's Garage. Keep up the good work Colin.
The triple-stack of the Mustang Cobra Rs was my absolute dream in the early 2000s. I may need to rewatch the show as I wasn't paying attention to the host, haha.
Neat series. This is gonna be good!
I agree Toby!
This was great! More, please.
Regarding the LM002: "Only the Italians could do something this crazy." I totally agree with that statement.
I was impressed with LM002 owners meticulous care of his car and his Kimi Alfa Romeo hat. Well done Sir, well done!
American using a Kimi hat must be rare
LM002 - no contest favorite vehicle ever made. Absolutely ridiculous and unnecessary, but just so unique and interesting.
There was a black LM002 at a local import garage for quite a while, as well as a Laforza! My estimate of the LM002 was nearly spot-on, but my Ford pickup number was around $60K.
That truck although very well done is no where near where they estimated. I thought $60k as well.
The well done resto mod/pro touring f100s and c10s are binging 150k+ at auctions now, it seems high because a rust free roller short bed is still only worth about 10k to get the project started, but none the less that's what they bring done. Think it's a combination of the popularity from the fast and loud show and now the covid supply chain issues/ inflation on top of that.
What a banger first episode!! Can't wait for more!!
I truly enjoyed this - well done and thank you! Looking forward to this series.
That Cobra R in the background is badass. Always loved that thing.
Very Cool! Be fun to have Colin give an appraisal on my F100 Raptor
I'd love to! Stay tuned for how to submit it for the next season. Thanks for watching.
@@cobracolin I saw that very truck from this episode this morning! I had my truck at same mobsteel cars n coffee in scottsdale.
Great video series! Looking forward to more.
this series needs to continue. more please.
I loved Richard's love of Italian cars, here is a guy who rolls in a Lambroghini wearing a Ferrari Jacket and an Alfa Romeo hat. I giggled when thinking about Lambroghini's history with Ferrari.
Greta potential series! I have to say that the Lamborghini is "ridiculous" looking.
Loving this new Hagerty Appraiser channel
Nice video. For a future video idea, it would be nice to do a walk-through of how to find and select an appraiser that is appropriate for your vehicle. For example, I imagine some appraisers are more familiar with certain genres over others. Also, what are some of the tips for having your car appraised.
Love that revamped FORD pick-'em-up truck
That thing was clean 👌🏻
@@chadm6805 So true!
Love it... keep going!
Lamborghini LMOO2 a so nice car 🇮🇹
Keep the appraisal stuff coming
I’ll go over there and do my yoga!! This guy is a beauty.
Excited for that yellow Giannini!
You know you have a collector's item when someone says "when you could get these tires..." :)
That lambo is something else. Especially with the original owner.. but like he said, it's family.. although I'm worried bout the paint peeling off though. I feel like a strong gust of wind would tear it apart. I guess the garage it is for the rest of its days.
Awesome...
Very cool, great vid!! 👍👍👍
Even in the bubble of everything we are in currently in and auction silliness i would doubt that truck would pull $150k ..Custom/modified normally never get what is invested in them ,they are not collectable. Appraiser should be more conservative . The lambo on the other hand is a true collectable .
That truck should be in the 20s it's just a crate engine and a few suspension add ons. It's like the internet is jacking the price up on everything now. A stock 1990 volvo wagon sold the other day for 36k dollars.
Show is called, Appraiser, not ShitHouse Appraiser.
Agreed.. a crown vic front end is "doing it right"? Uuuh,, no. That's dong it cheap. And as mentioned, it's a 5.0 crate, tranny, and rear end. It's nice, but it's a 45k pickup.
@@slowrunner1660 that was my thought. I was thinking $40k, up to MAYBE $60k tops if he were to find the right buyer. I’ve worked at two high end shops, one primarily a hot rod shop, and the other a concourse restoration, on top of owning my own hot rod shop.
I knew I would find this post, and I totally agree that $150-170k for that truck is ridiculous. I was honestly thinking $40-60k. Its certainly a nice build but its just not special enough to command that kind of money.
That’s a beautiful truck. I’d buy it in a heart beat. Now to pull out my credit cards 💳. 😂

Yes, it's honey for a man's soul!
And you can escape a Zombie apocalypse over rough terrain and in Italian luxury and power!
🤙🏻
I would take the Lambo in a heartbeat.
I first saw that Lambo on Motor Week, way back when, and used on a short-lived series called "Nasty Boys." Wish I could afford it--and a '65 Jag XKE as well. One lousy winning lottery ticket would solve the problem.
I love how he’s rocking a Ferrari jacket an Alfa Romeo hat and rolls in a Lambo. But not just any Lambo a fricking LM. Wow my kinda guy
😂
I'm sure he owns those vehicles too.
Awesome show. Would love to take my wee time capsule FD RX7 on some time! Going to be west coast bound to film a top speed run attempt later this year. Hope I can keep watching these until then. 🤟
that ford truck interior looks tight, no leg room
Love this series!
For a moment I thought the owner of the F100 truck was none other than Walter White. I also think that even he had trouble believing the valuation based on his body language! I think the owners estimate of 80k is much, much closer to the mark.
The Rambo Lambo on the other hand if off the charts cool, and I think a 300k+ estimate is quite realistic given the market for old V12 Lambo's at the moment, not to mention its coolness and rarity.
i remember seeing some lm002s on ebay for around 50,000 back in the early 2000s
Oh Visalia California 🙌🏼
If that Lamborghini is family, it's got a face only only a mother could love! It's a $350,000 dune buggy that you can only take to buy groceries or to church.
The Ford f-100 resto mod is nice and all, but I'm not a fan of the original paint color nor the garish color combination of that interior with the bronze trim and wheels. Wheels. Maybe somebody likes it but good luck getting $125,000 for it. He says he's not in it to sell it, and that's a good thing. Be fortunate to get what he put into it back out of it when he sells it. If he sells it.
All that negativity expressed, I do like the show. Hopefully they'll be something come along that floats my boat aesthetically. These two vehicles are beside the point for me. I'm glad they've got owners and fans. To each his own.
the owner of the LM002 drives a Lamborghini, wears a Ferrari jacket, and an Alfa Romeo hat, that is more Italian than pizza
I'm definitely in the "dislikes clear coated original paint aka patina" group, but to each their own.
Make this a series!
But…it is! 😁
Love the f100, I'd put 70mm profile tyres on and that's it.
Look forward to more of this series and listening to people cry when told the truth.
Love this content keep it coming
LM002 is what we need. still.
I can see that pickup being handed down to the son just because of that road trip.
Subscribed to the channel and put on alerts just to be sure I don’t miss an episode.
TRAILOR QUEENS
He couldn’t find his Lambo jacket?
Very cool vehicles!
Surprised Colin did not notice the BMW E30 sport seats in the F100.
I did- but hard to include a part by part rundown in a 6 min recap 😁 Thanks for watching!
The cars in the background are fantastic!
Who own them?
He must be a car nut 😂😂😂, but there are some really nice cars around!
I like! The only thing I don't like is the placement of the gas filler, it would be in the way if you want to put stuff in the bed.
Both very cool but, I gotta pick the F100.😎👍🇨🇦
$80K for the truck would be about right. I can't believe $150,000 is realistic.
There is a nice one for sale on Facebook right now for 7k. You just need a new crate engine and a old crown vic.
For a complete resto-mod car the builder must've known how much they valued best and I agree $80k is realistic but we all know there's always someone who'd pay around $150k for that F100 and won't regret it
@@GjordDeLad05 yeah 80k it realistic lmao 7k work without motor. Add a 10k dollar crate engine now its worth 80k that makes no sense
Love the coyote F100 😎😎. The LM was the first time Ive heard or seen one...not my taste but so what.
Uh oh he mentioned Fresno CA... Hopefully people dont start wisening up the central valley is honestly one of the best places left to find rust free chassis and classics for a good price still. 😛
“It drives like a new car, probably drives like a Mustang, I would guess...”
Watch out, pedestrians!!
the lamborgini owner dope af wearing a ferrari jacket haha
That guy seriously showed up driving a Lamborghini in his Ferrari jacket. 🤔 🤣
Ford does nothing for me; faux patina? No thank you. But the LM002? Wow! Always loved them. That vehicle is barely run in! Just a different class to the Ford; nothing false about it: true Italian patina!
Outta you freakin mind on that f series. 80k tops
What seats are in the Ford truck...
LAMBO WINS!!!!
What kinds of seats are those in that truck? Gorgeous
Hi, All! Thanks for watching the first episode of "The Appraiser" and for all of the great comments. To answer the most common one, the much debated value of the 1970 F100 on this episode, I agree it seems unlikely something like that could be worth so much money.
But as I mentioned on the show the value of such a machine, for the person who wants to own one, is based on what it would cost to duplicate. In this case you'd be hard pressed to find a donor short bed, original paint very straight and rust-free F100 as nice as Jim did for less than $20k these days. Add to that just a Gen 3 Coyote crate engine from Ford, with the PCM and harness to run it, is $13k alone...plus the transmission...suspension..brakes...interior etc and you can see where the parts are easily over $40k. Now let's add in the labor at a pro shop such as the one that built Jim's truck. That's a minimum of 1,500 hours at a prevailing average shop rate today of $100/hour= $150k+ Therefore you can see the replacement cost would well exceed $200k, not to mention the time to manage such a build. Given that, the fact that I have seen a number of similar trucks sell for well over $100k at auction, and the fresh build and high quality of Jim's truck led me to my $125k appraised value. Far less than it cost to build and, hey, it is just a bad ass machine that has "the look" and was a hoot to drive.
In fact, the day before this episode aired, a 1968 F100 that was an older build in a similar style to Jim's truck (but an automatic...and I don't know how to drive those) sold on Bring a Trailer for $127,777 all-in with the $5k buyer's premium. So if Jim decides to sell in this market I maintain my number will be pretty damn close!
Now, as for the LM002....holy crap do I want that truck! I owned one in 1997 and have regretted not keeping it since I sold it. Of course, as one of you so accurately pointed out, they aren't $50k anymore either. Sigh. Maybe I'll just go buy a Ferrari jacket and an Alfa hat instead. Or not.
Thanks again for watching and keep the comments coming! Remember, too, a new episode hits the Hagerty channel every Friday at 10am CST!
-Colin
I suggest people take the time and look up the 68 F100 like I did.
It's a fully completed truck that only sold for 127g.
But yet this guy claims at auction this 70's truck could bring in 150-175g!!!!
Makes perfectly good sense to me.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Regarding the 1970 F-100, when the Bed Floor was "modified" to accept the Mustang Fuel Cap, the Bed is not as "Utilitarian" as an actual Truck that someone may Haul Groceries, Lumber, or possibly Gravel/Soil.
And, can the "Upgraded" suspension keep up with it's "Roots" for Payload and Towing?
No, it's a truck in name only. Sure you could haul normal things like the groceries (and watch them fly out as you drive), and some camping gear and luggage, etc.
I was literally thinking 325k for the LM-002, and when he said those exact digits I had to do a double take
$70k on a good day for the Fordinga F100 considering short beds are Rare and finding one that's Rust-free imo
The LM001 was designed to be sold to the Italian Army. They balked at the price tag so Lamborghini offered it up to other countries (including the USA) with no bites.
First class workmanship on that pickup, especially suspension & drivetrain. But I just can't see spending the cubic dollars on a $2000 field basket where your head rides 6' off the ground.
Did he say $10,000 per tire??? And I complain about a $200 motorcycle tire… Lol
More than ever before, the market is all about originality. Nobody wants to purchase someone else's dream...unless they want peanuts for their dream.
The owner was close on what that truck would go for at an auction. My guess would be more like $65-70K. No way in hell it would sell for $175K. This show reminds me of Antique Roadshow where the appraisers quote unrealistic re-sell values to try and make the show more interesting.
Or actual values based on real-world comparable sales and market insight?
That's the difference between an Appraised value, and what it will actually sell for. His appraisal what he believes it's worth probably spot on. But no one buys anything for suggested retail price.
@@colincomer4566 you don't make a very valid argument went you compared a 68 fully painted and complete in every way show truck that only sold for $128g to this 70 with no paint job, questionable body work, basic bolt on junk yard suspension....... but yeah $175g resale for sure....... I guess when I finish my 78 F100 Build its gonna be worth $300g 🤣🤣🤣
why didn't they ask the ford owner how much it cost to build
Probably because it wouldn't be over 30k. Truck 6k if new crate engine and trans 14k? Front suspension free off old crown vic.
My thoughts exactly.
How do you value a junk yard swap front end, basic brakes, horrible box body line mod, bolt on suspension at $125g
Insanity
@@muffpipe84 a guy on Facebook has a 80s ranger long bed with collector car insurance valued at 20k. I bought the same exact truck but short bed for 300 dollars 6 months ago.
Well for the ford I'm from Europe so we don't have the truck culture here nor we have any nostalgic value for old trucks so it is worthless to me. But the LM002 on other hand that is one rare beast. Is it good off-roader I don't think so. Is it cool to have/own just to look at it. Hell yea!
Isn't this Matter Farah's facility?
I think he way overvalued the f100 supernice truck but idk about 120k
He's wearing a Ferrari jacket but drives the Rambo lambo
Don't forget the Alfa Romeo F1 hat, he's gone full Italy, probably wears FIAT socks.
@@Arthurzeiro and we can’t forgot the Maserati underwear.
Lancia belt buckle?
One owner lambo LM002 ? ..almost guarantee he has a Ferrari tucked away too.
So many people with money that own exotics have no idea what they are talking about when it comes to cars. Good on them for taking care of vehicles, but not the kind of people that are fun to hang out with in the car scene.
I love patina, but y would you not do the body and get top dollar for ur build!
Right now I wouldn’t pay a penny over $100k. Now I need to get $99,999.
At this rate, Hagerty is gonna have enough shows to start an app with paid subscription
Don’t give em’ any ideas…
Very slick Ford!
Never liked the look of the Lambo.
damn that Ford is drool worthy
👍
125K for the truck, I disagree...
80K is tops...
This is worth 80k like a pokemon card is worth 200k
Factory frame with crown vic swapped front end.
= cheap
Factory frame with QA1 suspension
= not as cheap
Roadster shop chassis + Coyote + interior =
Maybe $100,000 to $130,000 then but because there is absolutely nothing special about the chassis this truck is not worth anywhere near the $125g.
@@muffpipe84 or just sit the body on a srt viper truck frame and be done with it for like 12k. For 100k maybe if one of the low rider guys built it where the whole underside it's chromed out and artwork etched on all the metal gold plated bumpers and stuff too
I'm still blown away when he says @ auction possibly $150,000 - $175,000
The guy just keeps spit balling numbers but in reality nothing ads up.
@@muffpipe84
I don't know where they get the evaluations, I don't see anyone paying that...
I think he's overvaluing these vehicles , but the Lambo probably would be easier to find some rich collector that wants to show off to his billionaire friends .The Ford can be made but the og Lambo can not .Either way I'd take the Ford all day.
Carburetor tuning? 🤔
Yes. Times 6.
@@colincomer4566 I'll take your word for it, you are much more well-versed than I. Looked like a plenum and didn't see any tuning instructions on the emissions placard. Still carb'd in 88 wow, only the Italians! LOL. Really enjoying the series and your thorough reviews. Wish you could drive them too. Thx.
Drives a Lamborghini while wearing a Ferrari jacket and Alpha Romeo hat
When the owner of the LM002 came in rocking a Ferrari jacket and loafers while in a Lambo truck that screams he has F you type money
Original tires? Or reproduction original style? If they are the ones that came with it in the 80s that's scary to think he drove it beyond his driveway.
Hilarious pricing 🙄🤣
That is a 50 grand truck it is a thousand dollar truck with 25 grand into it plus labor
I guy on Facebook has a 80s ranger with collector car insurance saying it's worth 20k I bought the same truck color and all for 300 bucks
