It is a Best in Show and multiple Trophy Winner, and a real head turner. It is insured through Grundy Worldwide for $30,000.00 The present owner is asking $24,900.00 for this one of a kind beautiful example of American History. The only reason the price is where it is is simply because of the economy. As can be seen by the \'step up appraisals\' above. This car won\'t lose value. It is never going to be worth less then the asking price at this time. Serious inquiries only, please. Bobbie 530-886-8089 cell: 530-906-5800 e-mail: ldydiss@yahoo.com
