Re: Friday puzzlers

["Gary H." <62to65mopar@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

A seller can ask whatever they want, of course. I included the $33,000 '62 Crown 4 door hardtop as a puzzler since one price guide quotes a #1 condition of this model's 4 door hardtop as valued at $22,075. This particular Imperial looks closer to a #3  condition to me, so around a $7000 valuation. 

I was surprised to see the other Imperial advertised as a "derby" car since I thought Imperials were banned from demo derby events because they were so strong. Actually at this time it is a shame to see them in a demo derby anyway. They are a piece of history now and worth more in parts than a few bucks in prize money. 

thanks,
Gary H.
