Norm, I have to respectfully disagree. 150K prices are long gone. I spoke with a collector friend who has an aluminum front end Max Wedge, and I confirmed his opinion with another long time collector. Their opinion is the car is worth 65-80K with 80K being all the money today. The Polara 500 was not even available with the aluminum front end which would raise the value. Gorgeous car though.

While he may be honest, the person who writes is ad copy is prone to puffery. Reminds me of a &quot;car salesman&quot; in the truest sense of the word.

[img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/haha.gif[/img] Real Honest!! They changed their name &amp; location.
I am sure his reason for this will be interesting &amp; honest as ALL dealers would give ya. Didnt you know when they have a dealers license, it comes with a honest card! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]

The original location is still in Ohio. The name change is because Rob Kauffman is now the main owner and is a part owner of Waltrip's NASCAR team, hence the location of Charlotte and the Speedway. As I said before Joe Carroll is very honest and sells quality cars. Read the letters from many satisfied customers on the website.

I have to agree with Sam, this car is right in the ballpark $ wise. Add any successful race history and these cars jump into the mid 150K range.

The car does have a race history. If I can get a picture I will post the original stickers from the various drag strips of the day that are still on the rear windows.

After much more research I stand corrected. I have to agree with Norm and this car has race history.

Hey guys, I just want to add my two cents worth on Best of Show and Joe Carrol. I bought a hemi car from Joe and I can tell you he was honest and first class. I would not hesitate to deal with him again. Now he isn't giving away any of these cars but what I bought was rare,rare,rare.I felt I got a fair price for what I was getting. Of course I am not looking to dump this car after a couple of years. I really like what I bought and am going to keep it. Best regards to all.
