I'm wondering the same thing. Hard to tell with a somewhat visually underwhelming car like a '54 Chevy (no offense to owners...my grandad had a '53 and I loved it.) But you're right it's a nice looking car, condition wise. Maybe people are starting to jettison the bargaining margin from the asking price to make the car more appealing during desperate times. They may be less willing to negotiate on the lower asking prices, though. Just a theory. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryB Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 James, you break my heart! I like 1954 Chevys almost as much as 1955s. I guess it’s mostly nostalgia as I rode in many 54 Chevrolet cars as a kid. Very popular car in my neighborhood. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes sir the 57 Ford Fairlane 500 2dr hardtop is a beautiful car. The 56 Mercury 2dr hardtop is my favorite. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it’s mostly nostalgia as I rode in many 54 Chevrolet cars as a kid. Very popular car in my neighborhood. As I said, I love the 53's and 54's of Chevrolet, but they're just more pedestrian than some other cars of the 50's. To give an analogy people love the looks of MGA's and people love the looks of Morris Minors, but one is just more dramatic and stylish than the other. I'd still love to have either a Morris Minor OR a '54 Chevy...more than a '55 Chevy, but '55 Chevys have a lot more market value than either of those because the '55 is thought to be stylish and such (I guess.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
