Nice car. I'm tired of the insane prices things are pulling. It's like everything went up at least a grade. 442s pull W-30 money. SX's pull 442 money. Cutlasses pull low 442 money. Big cars pull Cutlass money. Rust bombs pull solid project money, etc.

Apparently I have nothing to do other than nit pick.
k = 1,000
so 18,000k = 18,000,000 or 18 million

That there's a lotta miles.

It still has whitewalls on it. Wonder how old they are. I bet there is no date code on them. Nice car.

I agree, unfortunately for us working folks with actual passion and knowledge (and enough drive/initiative to support), it is the CURRENT reality. FWIW, Your comparisons are actually conservative. 1970 W30 442=yesterday’s Deusenberg. What is happening to our hobby?

Nice car, refreshing seeing a base model with the original stripes. Most of the restored cars don’t have the stripes parallel with the side marker lights
