Default Re: Anyone with the "Dirty Word" knowledge

What does the person buying it want from the car? If they expect to just be able to get in it and turn the key to take the kids for ice cream forget it. These cars require constant maintenance, especially as this does not look like a fully restored vehicle. If it has provenance from new that might mean something. I've seen so many cool looking Chevrolets, Pontiacs and Plymouths from the 30s and nicely restored their prices come no where near what a Ford is worth.
Remember this could be a 48 year old restoration on a 40 year old car. Seems like a new category since I was a kid.
