Default 63 split window alert
For anyone looking, a 63 split window just went on Boston Craigslist about an hour ago for 65K. I don't think it will last long at that price.

I'm waiting for prices to drop even further, and then I'm going to buy Frankie's SWC for peanuts.

That's going to be his casket. I'm not a fan of 63 split windows but if I was I would check this one out, esp since it's close to me.

Seems like a reasonable price to me. I've seen plenty of nice '63's for $85-90K. It looks like it would take about $20-25K to bring this car to the level of those ones.

I know. It’s a tough gig, what with people wanting your car for peanuts and all.

Seriously, you have to be very careful in the 63 market. A correct coupe door could easily cost $2,500. Hit a few of those snags and your bargain can become a money pit.

I agree if you do the math that's correct.
