Values Antique Car, Truck, Camper at $155,000
Collectibles rarely have an established market price, and the form doesn't say how this value was reached. Assets must be reported at fair market value; this one is 20% of reported net worth.
What to check
Is there evidence of sales or appraisals at this value?
Would the net worth look different without it?
Rule: Hard-to-value asset

“Describe, and state the value of, each asset you had on the reporting date you selected for your net worth, if the asset was worth more than $1,000 and if you have not already included that asset in the aggregate value of your household goods and personal effects.”2023 Form 6 instructions, Assets ✓ quoted from the saved instructions · how this rule works
