Nice Car, but expensive

This is truly a gem of a car, but at $95K and not even a W-30 I think is currently a lot. But, great if they can get.

One thing that threw me off about the restoration was the painted gas tank and gas tank straps. I would have thought the tank would be natural - the silver galvanized - with black straps.

Very nice car, but it will probably never bring the $. I would never be happy with the wrinkles in the conv top, especially for that kind of $.

I'm pretty sure this is the car that was recently on that "appraise my car" show. The owner (who was a dealer) sent it through the auction & it didn't meet reserve. In the interview afterword the dealer said a deal was made after it went across the block.
