    Like your list Mark. Who says $282,000 doesn’t buy much anymore.

    $128,000! Was this an Elvis car, or Sinatra? I don’t get it at all. Not even sure about that interior. That was two guys who were definitely in a duel.

    Beautiful car. Though I personally prefer the 62-64 front end.

    Looked at the history. As I suspected the winner and basically one other bidder took this car from $51,000 to $128,000. I find a delicious irony that the winning bidder was “diaperman”. I would certainly need one if I realized at the end I probably paid a $70,000 premium for a car with too fat whitewalls, and maybe a questionable interior.

    Exactly . Here is a similar one with "stock" interior for $70,000 . I think 66 is last year for 4 door convertible, so that might add some??

    This is such a nicer car for nearly half the money. Actually’67 was the last year, but they’re identical minus the fender star. Plus you got the flower pot steering wheel in ‘67 lol.

    I just overtook one of those with an older couple in it, it looked like it resided in a climate-controlled garage, but is it $22K? Maybe in a decade.

    Well in a decade that’ll be a bargain as a loaf of bread will be $39.50, and a gallon of gas will be $97.99.

    That's a beauty. They recently unveiled the first one at the F-100 Nationals.
