    Really? 90 grand? Who is going to pay that? Sure, it's a gorgeous car and it looks like it was done reasonably well, but someone should tell the seller that it is not expected that once a freshly restored flip is put up for sale that the resto costs are not automatically recoverable unless it's a full Classic or a highly desirable postwar "classic", none of which this car is.

    see more and more of these bozos asking for big money and can't restore it correctly.
    no pics of underside. but wrong hose clamps, battery cables, radiator cap all for 9ok.

    Hey we see cars posted here every day that are total rats and worth an eight of what they are asking and you guys think they are priced right or close, I would rather overpay for this than some of those rats that have no potential for future growth potential. AT the right auction he probably could see some good figures out of this one. Have seen a few of these sell over the last couple years in the 60-70 range, I know of one personally that sold for 81K in a private sale(it was a fantastic correct restoration) . Will he get $90K out of this one, no, but it has more going for it than against it so I figure in the end he will do well with it. As far as hose clamps and battery cables, that's an hour changeover if you want to go the judging route

    Price dropped $25k from when I first posted it a month ago. It's moving in the right direction!

    $50K is more realistic.
    It is a gorgeous car though, regardless of the incorrect clamps. The modern ones are better anyway, they at least hold.
