Worlds most valuable '59 Chevy, or just an example of having lots more money than sense?
It's not an El Camino, but the guy is still trying to get about a HALF-MILLION bucks for it!
Personally, I would dump the 20" wheels, tires, gauges, steering wheel, and funky chrome trim.
Might replace the headlamps too, other than all that it's not a bad effort.(':lol:')
The more I look at other's efforts the more I want my '59 to at least appear vintage.
I'd agree that it is a beautiful car, and agree that the rims look goofy on it. I surely can't agree with the money. That's insane money for that. Personally, I see no logic in trailer queens, if ya ain't gonna use em, plant flowers in em or something. Although, I wouldn't mind having it, if only to sell, and buy more Elkys.
My offer would be 80 - 120K depending on what it looks like in person. That for a 1/2 million? Hell, you could build that car yourself for 150K or less with a LS7 motor and nice looking wheels. blahh
Just my opinion but even though the seller has 100% feedback, i'm thinking he's just fishing for offers. That car wouldn't bring that kind of money at Barret-Jackson even with a goober who had more money than sense.
Here's what I consider a much better example and 90% cheaper.
:lol: too many after market chrome goodies( like from Kragen or Autozone) check it out ok for daily drivers but come on a half a million for a cheap hotwheels replica NO bang for my buck !
Highest offer was $20,000. Show cars have to be about.......

Show cars have to be about expressing your personal vision, my experience is that they are rarely a good investment financially.
