I don't doubt he's spent a lot of money on the restoration, but I suspect the seller is about to get a lesson on why low-trim sedans are generally poor candidates for this level of work. Maybe I'm wrong, but I can't see this selling for more than $10K? And, if the work isn't top notch, I doubt it'd move for even half of that.

I've seen this car up close on quite a few occasions; the work has been extensive and the quality of workmanship is indeed very, very nice.

No sign of "factory A/C" either but there is a suspicious panel in the trunk apparently covering the dealer-installed A/C.

But the question remains: who would pay $35K for a '55 Clipper sedan. Better yet how many mid-50's low-trim sedans of any marque would command $35K? The market for these isn't growing and I've been seeing more sought-after cars languishing at prices less than this.

And it's a post car. No sedan is worth that much to me. Not talking mess about sedans, I will eventually get one but like said above the money is the coupes, and hardtop.

Seller of the '35 Super Eight 1203 is in error when he states the cost for the chassis in color was $7, it was a $55 extra.
