Again, the passage of time and finding it incredible what people think these cars (any old car) is worth now.
Geez, back in '90 I had an almost fully loaded '77 Crestwood (Monaco) Wagon with a Class 4 hitch welded to it. Despite being a New England car, only rot was the spare tire well. Car ran great and and everything worked.
I paid $300 for it and it needed nothing to be driven. I planned to keep the car a l-o-n-g time, but black ice and 40 ft of guardrail had other ideas.
