[FC] $14,000 rampside

[Paul Steinberg]

The first time that any production Corvair sells for $70,000 it will make the Guinness World Book of Records.  The highest priced selling FC that I know of was the one that was converted to operate in water.  The second highest one was the 1962 Amblewagon that sold to a foreign buyer on ebay last month.  Have I missed any??? Paul in CT

  Subject: [FC] $14,000 rampside


  There was a guy selling a rampside in the San Francisco area for $14,000 on  
  craigslist.org. It had been converted to a 140hp, with a raised engine cover,  
  Supposedly a recent "restoration". I contacted him, thinking it was a typo, 
  and  $1400 seemed a little cheap, but no, it was $14,000. Firm. He said that 
  recently  a rampside sold for $70,000 at an auction "back east". Does anyone 
  know of this  apparently solid gold rampside that sold for $70,000? I think the 
  seller may be  dyslexic, and doesn't know where to put the decimal symbol on 
  his  prices...
