Grab a $5000 or less derelict off Craigslist / Marketplace, etc and refurbish it to that level for less than $68K. I'll bet a box of donuts you can't even get close.
68K for a car in various stages of neglect including leaky wheel cylinders that are so bad that all of the paint on the back of the wheel is coming off. Anyone that pays anywhere near close to that is a ****er. I would say 22-27K on a good day just from the rest of the undercarriage pictures.
Definitely cool but way out of my price range. The low prices mentioned above might be for a 5 window, but I have never seen a 3 window anywhere close to this condition in the 20’s or 30’s for that matter. I paid $3500 for a pretty decent 5 window body once, but it was in pieces and had two extra windows. I thought I stole it at that price.
Love it but that green paint on the flathead and 3 speed, woof. Dash is very cool IMO. I don't think the price is outrageous. Not on the west coast anyway.
I love the historic pics...kinda wish it stayed modified...almost looks like it was chopped a couple in some of those old pics...maybe it still is...some have un-chopped, rare yes, but could also be distorted in those old pics...
Air pressure gage for pumping up the seats when you turn them into a mattress? Air pig pressure checker Air shocks pressure It was free with the gauge package... That fella that owned it had a pretty high bar...that shelf and cup setup and most stuff is top notch...
