I saw the car last week and while it was a professional restoration, it is showing its age. The owner is still looking for offers. I think it will sell for much less than the asking price.

Not another Black 54 Vette? I know the Black Book says that they only made 4 Black 1954 Corvettes but why have I seen all 13 of the 4 they made . I have over the years owned about 7 or 8 of the 1954 Corvettes and I have never had one that was worth 180K nor do I think they made one worth that much, resto-mod-ed or not. Heck the 1953 Corvettes are not bringing to much more then that and there were only 300 made with 294 sold. Maybe the other 4 53 Vettes will be worth a million bucks, who knows. Good luck with the sale of it.

My 54 brought 155k at Scottsdale last year and it was a fresh build. Looks like a nice car but it will set for a while at that price.

Bruce,

I agree. I looked at the car for another forum member and spoke to the widow that owns the car. Someone will buy this car for much less than the asking price. She does not know the actual value, just wants it sold.

I'm sure if a much more realistic price was posted a fellow member would probably be interested. Could always auction it to determine value but then again by the time she pays someone to rep it and pays fees might as well factor that in and pass savings on to buyer. Net result will be the same.

The more I study the pics that car has some very cool touches. A set of different wheels with a little more "bling" and maybe set it a little lower maybe an inch would bring it up to date

An original survivor Pennant Blue 1954 sold at Barrett Jackson this year for $200,000 plus 10%, for a total of $220,000.


















Based on this I should ask $300,000 for mine. It's prettier. LOL
