The '54 Patrician appears to me to be a real solid purchase and a lot of car for the money.

The '51 Mayfair is of course a rare car but it will take some work and doesn't appear to be running.

The owner of he 54 said he had it sold after 2nd auction but buyer backed out because he was in state buyer and didn't want to pay st. sales taxes. He also told me he turned down $8500 and probably should have taken it. I'm not going to buy it but some people will answer questions on Ebay if you just ask. I don't think someone could go wrong with this Patrician as it's ready to enjoy as is and runs great. Why am I putting such a long post about this Patrician? I really like them and the 54 Pacifics, I have a soft heart for that 359 in there. I missed that purple 54 conv. a couple of weeks ago by being stubborn and not bidding $25K--live and learn I guess
