Nice '55 Coupe de Ville in NY for $12k....


Recommended Posts

You will want to bring a magnet along.  The bottom of that looks awful wavy.  If it wasn't for that it would seem like a good price. That being taken into account probably market priced or even a little high depending on what you find.  Says it has Amateur paint and body work as well as rust,  so that's concerning.

Oh my!  First glance and it looks nice, appealing colors, together, but enlarge cellphone pic and yikes!! 

 

A good comp though, for the straight dark blue 2 door ht that has been out there on CL for a while in NJ I think at $20k.  Assume 11k for this one, 18K for the other and it's an easy choice. 

 

That said, I think I would prefer one of these to anothet tri five Chevy if I were to go for another 50s era GM.  A lot of car for the money..

I think part of what we're seeing in the photo is an artifact caused by a reflection in the paint.  This was commented on in another thread fairly recently.  Take a look at this shot of the passenger side, for example.  That's a reflection, not a wavy surface.
