Tom Mack auctions had it earlier this year. It has the ultra rare rear seat shoulder belt option. The color is Olive Beige but the lighting makes it look like gold. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JZRIV Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Not anywhere close to $3400 but hey I guess he can try. A guy was selling a really nice used set here locally on CL for over 3 years asking only $125. Sure they are fairly uncommon but that is not proportional to desirability/demand/value. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you on the value. Some people just throw a price out there to see what they can get. I don't suppose that local set is still for sale yet?

RivNut Posted December 9, 2019 Author Share Posted December 9, 2019 Agreed, but it seems that the guys who list these cars always consider that the bucket seats with console is an option, and in '65 that the tilt wheel is an option.

Black River Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 (edited) Time for me to get a '60 Cadillac, my car is for sale, same deal for you guys....$17,500 no dicker price.
