I have acquired through volume purchase a Frobly 1958 Packard Hawk.  Not familiar with this brand.  Made in France.  Can anybody point me to a value??

A while back, one went on eBay for an astronomical sum. If I remember correctly, it was somewhere above $700. That sale was most unusual. There's a reworked one on eBay right now that's selling for $100. If yours is in mint condition and has the original box, I would think $100-150 would be reasonable. Let's see if anyone else weighs in.

I sold a mint boxed one at the CTCS show in Toronto about 12 years ago in the $500 Canadian dollar range. That was about  $450 US back then and it went to a British visitor.

There are a few shown here: https://www.hobbydb.com/marketplaces/hobbydb/subjects/frobly-brand

I can't believe you could get more than $100US without box these days... None have sold on ebay recently.  Two other Frobly went for $40 - 140...

How do I get on the auction?  Dashboard doesn't lead anywhere.

If you're asking about the Zone auctions, you can click on "Auctions" in the upper left of your screen.

@jkuvakas Does not compute.  I have followed all the instructions which lead me to believe I can go on my account under auctions, click on dashnoard and go.  But clicking on dashboard does not move the needle.

And with regard to 1958 Packards,  Esval has planned a Packard hardtop in blue and orange, both two tone.  Not a Studebaker Hawk based car but still one of the last Packards.

@legrandfromage, let me check, and I'll get back to you. The response should come from Kevin. He may be away until after the New Year. My apologies for the delay.

@chazy-r  Didn't Frobley long ago do an early Econoline van like this white one I made up from a White Box diecast mini bus.

I have a very similar Bruce Arnold Packard model, and it sometimes shows up on ebay for big bucks.  I like it.  Sorry for the lack of details but i am just home from hospital and kind of weak.   David H
