Title: 1957 Ford Fairlane 500 2 door Club Victoria hardtop
Post by: Fairlane Fan 57 on 2024-05-31 02:05
I am in search of a 2-door hardtop Club Victoria coupe in the 15k-19k range in driver status in running condition with no rust. It can have some wear and tear with faded paint. It doesn't have to have stock drive train I can accept a 302 or other type engine swap with AOD transmission with column shifter. Is there anything out there in California, Arizona, Nevada, or New Mexico?

There is one in Los Angeles.  Nice running driving looking.   The seller seems wishy washy on price.  It seen it list at 11k- then 16k, it seems reasonable near 11k.
Let me find the link.

That was probably the most running and driving. There is one other. Let me get the info. Been stagnant for about a year at about 15k
But for 15k you should be able to take your pick.

Thanks Abe,

Appreciate you helping me in the search. The Torrance car is being advertised on Facebook Marketplace. He's asking 12,500.
I am going to keep on looking.

I told you his price seems to jump by the week.  I think it will end up closer to 10k.

How much should a project car go for?

Post by: abe_lugo on 2024-07-22 00:59
For project 2 door hardtop.  I have seen the full array.  From 900-12k

There are a couple in the 3500 Range that seem nice enough to get running and enjoy. 

I can find and send some links. 
Again, I'm cheap, but I like running projects or very close to running, or mostly original cars. 

Ones a lot parts are going.  You're gonna spend a lot to get it back together. 

I thought you had found something?

A could really hear Custom 300 2 doors have came across FB marketplace for 8k or less in next to driving condition with nice paint.
The hardtops I'm seeing seems to be more like needs a good going through and tires1.5k,interior 2k, paint??!

Here are two.  I think the 12k is way over priced. They are flipping and will never get that much.  I would expect to see that sell for less than 6k. 

The other seems reasonable bit what is missing?
There were two mostly original hardtops this year and one was 3500 and the other more like 1500.

I threw in the 58 because it looks like a good deal if you don't care that it's a 58. 

A runs and drives nice interior one went for near 8k

I talking mostly all west coast cars.

A better question is, "Can I still get the parts and the people to help me build the car I want?"
