Adjusted for inflation here are the numbers:

In 1955, a Caribbean costs $5,932, which is $47,000 in todays money.

A $500 upholstery job in '55 would be the same as spending $3961 in todays money. Obviously the cost of an actual upholstery job today outpaces that of simple inflation as calculated above.
