I'd subtract $5k to $10k from the $30 if it's a b***h to drive but otherwise nicely restored to local show winner quality.


Honestly, in a Hershey Concours or Detroit survivor show,the values are way down and not going any higher. The people that remember and appreciate these cars are not too young.
So true - as the “Greatest Generation” moves on, interest in these earlier cars is waning; Boomers, like me, remember the Camaro and Mopar Hotwheels of their youth, bidding up prices accordingly. Personally ? I’m totally smitten with the elegant lines of the pre-war / post-brass era cars.
