As a general rule, I would look up the price of a "good" or "average" one on Kelly Blue Book. Deduct from that the value of the needed repair. Retail. For example, take a car or truck that books at say $10,000, but needs a transmission. If a transmission job costs $3500, then the fair price of the vehicle should come in around $6500. Maybe even deduct a bit for the "convenience" factor.
These days, getting into major engine work is a spendy proposition. Aluminum components, single use fasteners, timing chain/belt components, and needing to raise the cab on pickups for service all makes for some very expensive repair work. AND...just because you may be supplying the labor, that does NOT de-value the repair. It only saves you cash out of pocket.
