Re: Reminisce 1971 Price Guide Values
In 1970 my parents bought a 2 family house with a 5 car garage for 21,000 _the exact same house I bought in 2008 and paid 300,000. Just some perspective....

Hemmings ads from 1967, including my father's ads for his 41 tudor that I drove 50 years ago, and his 41 woody.

To put things in perspective, how much was a quart of milk, a loaf of bread and your hourly wage? Wayne

Re: Reminisce 1971 Price Guide Values
At least in New England, those prices look to be on the inflated side. Actual "street" prices bought and sold in those days was considerably lower.
In 1971, I bought a sharp rust free solid well running 1929 Tudor for $800. Needed an interior but it was driven around greater Boston for several monthes until swapped off. What was it traded for? You'll love this . . . Got a spiffy original 1934 Ford deluxe fordor V8 sedan (like the Bonnie & Clyde car) with 28,000 original miles. The guy that swapped me the 34' V8 bought it for $1,200 that same year. A couple of years later, I sold that car for $1,600. Had a few Model A and V8 Ford cars during that period and never paid more than a thousand bucks. And those car were very decent . . .not being mice infested rotted out barn finds either. Prices on vintage cars (and everything else) really started to escalate in the later 1970s with the Jimmy Carter great INFLATION era and dollar devaluation.
