    Im trying to decide if I should let go of my peice of history. It was bought new by Louis W Hill from the Great Northern Railway and used at their Pebble Beach Home from when it was new. Im having second thoughts.. help me decide !!! I have lots of paperwork, orig side curtains and irons.Has high speed ring/pinion in it, so it works great !!!

    I would only sell it if my family needed money, it would be the last to go. Nice car, how long have you owned it.

    Why do you need to sell it?? I would say keep it... Heck its was owned from 1961-2007 by the same person... That tells you something right there.... Hard to replace, in the end it's your choice... good luck to what you decide on doing.. Cheers !

    Should you sell it? It all depends on how long you are going to be leaving a footprint on your own *** from kicking yourself for selling it.

    Do not sell it! If you need the space put it in storage.. that kind of vehicle would surely be a better investment than any bank could offer :)
