Hi List,
I had two VCR's going and captured the segment. I thought my father-in-law
did a good job during the interview (I would have choked).
I was disappointed about their estimate on the car's value. I don't know if
we could ever find someone to give us a fair appraisal. I've tried a couple
of times to do "on-line" appraisals and they've never re-contacted me. I
figure they either don't know where to start looking for comparisons or just
won't admit they don't have a clue as to its value.
I am still hopeful that Hemmings will feature the Roadsters present at the Z
Nationals. I don't see why they won't utilize some of the extensive film
they took.
