Default Re: 1941 Super Deluxe convertible / Pricing question

With its blunt nose and bulbous trunk, it’s definitely an acquired taste; the ‘41 seems more “Dick Tracy” than Gatsby, a real departure from the elegant lines of Ford’s pre-war styling. Still, it’s growing on me as it honestly reflects the change in the nation’s psyche.

The car in question was “restored” by a local body / paint shop; bodywork / paint have been competently done, interior and top outsourced and done well. Engine bay is “confused”, but easily sorted / improved.

Hagerty suggests a value of about $30,000 for this condition - solid driver, capable of winning at the local level (not regional and definitely not Dearborn).

This said, the loss of members of the Greatest Generation and carnage among the Bitcoin bros haven’t helped pricing of late; would $25,000 be a reasonable expectation for the owner ?
