[Mark IV]

Flat floor or drop floor?

Back in 1989 when the "old car" market was riding a rocket, I hauled a 62 roadster to Columbus, Ohio that makes that car look like a cherry! The guy who bought the roadster paid $17,000 for it and likely spent upwards of 70K at the time to make a car out of it. When I rolled it out of my trailer I swept up ten pounds of the finest British steel and gave it to the guy!

If you remember that period, the mantra was "you can't pay too much, you just pay too early..." I saw 65-66 GT350 rustbuckets go for 50K. Of course when the market "corrected" itself many "Collectors" (read "investor") lost their hats and fannies which in retrospect was not a bad thing. It got the "I read these cars are a good investment in the Wall Street Journal" guys out of the market and put it back into the hands of enthusiasts once more.

Like a Mustang, not much you can't buy for an E type.
