I see those pretty often for sale. And not that expensive either. Usually in the $3-6k range.

late 50’s to late 60’s cars are what are commanding the big $$$

That would be the best call ever. " Yeah, I’m looking at the car you have for sale in the Auto Trader…From 1987."

LOL, i’ll post up some new ones later. The Trader is full of regular cars for like 1000-1500, '67 Camaros, '57 Chevys, stuff like that. I figured eevryone would want to see the rare ones first though.

I would say good at most since I had to replace both rocker panels and the windshield cowl. Oh yea, it had 9 layers of paint on it too. But it was only 3 blocks from my house 🙂 And it was a nice addition to the 57 Chevy that I owned at that time too.

Nope. North Tonawanda. A guy on Roberts Drive in one of the apartments.  
My lame ass Cardomain has pics of it when I first got it.

The Firebird on the cover is nice. I want a 67 or 68 Firebird. Too bad they messed it up. I HATE 1st gen Firebirds with Chevy engines. Not bad for $2500. Probably no rust in San Jose.
