Re: Is the buy it now price reasonable for this '56 Executive?

I just have to laugh at "incorrect" valve cover paint. It was pointed out on a car I was looking at a while back. Well, I sure wouldn't ask to have $1000 knocked off because at some point the valve covers were taken off and touched up before putting them back on, rather than letting them continue to rust and pit.

But, in this case, I'd ask for about $7000 off just on general principles. Although a desirable car, an Executive should not be going for several thousand more than, as mentioned, a very very good 400 would fetch.

Nice one to keep an eye on for when the seller really wants to part with it. Obviously just fishing for now, but possibly worth a shot to hook an over-eager e-bay buyer.

Just my (and now half-off with limited time mail-in rebate).
