I am considering .... seriously considering, the purchase of a C1 and would like to know what to look out for in the market today.
The thought of having a C1 has been a dream for many many years. When I was
15 or 16 my dad had a 1962 327-340hp White w/Red int. and my Uncle had a Frost Blue Fuel Inj. 1959. I was hooked from there on....Unfortunately, due to having a family and other things that always seemed to capture my attention, not to mention my finances, I was never able to have a C1 of my own. Times however are changing and it may be my time. The problem however, is what people now call "Reasonably priced". It's not that I wouldn't pay the price, it's just that I want to get the very best for the money and have an investment as well.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
P.S. My dad paid $6900 for his '62 and my uncle paid $8500 for the Fuelie and thought he was getting gouged. Anyone have a time machine I can borrow?
