However, between the original purchase price, YES

and a cost for your time for any work done (what might your hourly rate be? $50 or $75/ hr?), NOPE, absolutely NOT

the likelihood of you actually making a gain is unlikely unless you are selling a very high dollar hemi car and bought it cheap.


You don't get to claim your time/rate on the work YOU do to your personal car.
