What is a veloce air filter housing worth??looks like 60's giulietta ??
It looks more like a Giulia V (63-65) housing to me. You don't show the outlet connection so it's hard to guess. I'd ball park such a housing at: $100-125; a little more if you had the mounting bracket and straps.

It has a single air inlet. They all do; it's the outlet piping that changes for different models.

and what is that solex plenum worth? The Giulia Normale plumbing is worth: $25-50, depending on the weather on eBay at the time of auction closing.

and a solex from a 62 spider? I take this to mean a complete SOLEX 32 PAIA 5 carburetor? That depends upon present condition; an under-the-bench-parts-carb? = $25; Used-but-good? = $50; Cleaned, rebuilt with new diaphragm and guaranteed? = $350-400.
Just my opinion...

My definition of what is worth: What someone is willing to pay for that specific item at a given time; assuming there is a willing seller, a willing buyer and ultimately, an exchange of cash at that time.

What would you likely be able to obtain for a given sum of cash, or other comparable goods or services such as barter, trade, etc..

The absolute best example of predictable worth is ebay, where thousand of buyers and sellers meet every day, where one day a canister like yours might sell for a insane amount of $1,000 for example, and within a few days, all the 45 item watchers decide to sell their canisters that have been lingering in some remote and forgotten corner of their garage, attic, or even behind the shed along under the pile of junk. Then, there was a sudden drop in price, perhaps as much to as high as $150 for the exact item. Still, ebay remains the best predictable place for establishing value.

I'm actually looking for the entire apparatus for a giulia spider normale....does anyone have one lying around? I'm willing to cough up some serious change for one! The PO installed a Weber DGV and must've ditched the cannister back in the day, which is too bad because it adds so much to the engine bay. I know there's always ebay but I haven't seen one for sale in quite awhile.
