Replying to: andre1969 (Nov 14, 2008 6:40 pm)  I didn't know that about the 5th Ave color schemes...guess I will never have one of those! I am really not a fan of whitish and beigeish color schemes, and I am very attracted to blue/grey/silver and variants. I'll admit that the factor that made me stop and look at my current car when it was for sale is that I had never seen one in that color (grey). |

Replying to: fintail (Nov 14, 2008 6:35 pm) The Lancia looks rough but neat. So does that aluminium Daimler. The Celica is nice too. I don't think that run of the mill Japanese cars like these will ever fetch high numbers in the future. To every car person they're pretty much economy cars and nothing more. Not sure if I'd lust after one. Desoto Firedome: I like the pictures. I tried to copy one or tow but they're copyright protected  Otherwise, eys nice resto. The panel gaps in it are really off though, were cars built like that in the 50s? Was that the norm? Supercharged Seville: You wonder why there's no bids? $70k to build? I'd stop at $5k and cut my losses. Sellers of the New Yorker also have an awesome collection. Everything looks like new from a distance. It would be neat to see and drive them. Like toy companies always say: "Collect'em all!!" |

I'd say $12,500 is all the money, but depending on how he advertises and sells it, he might get a bit more. It is a CCCA classic though, he's right but it needs everything and everything costs much more than what the car is worth. So I'd clean it up, get it running and drive it--if the price was cheap enough.
