I have heard it was Ben Franklin who said that
"An ounce of gold should buy a man a good suit."
I could certainly get a good suit for $1200.
And on occasion I dig out these snippets from the
classifieds ads in a copy of a 1973 Indianapolis Star
newspaper:
'67 Chevelle, 396, 4 spd. $950
'67 Corvette conv. air, power windows, 427, $2,300
Ferrari, 1959 250 GT, 12 cyl. 2 passenger, excel. cond. $4,950
'53 Jag XK120 show car, $3,395
'64 MGB New red paint, new top, luggage rack, very fast, $1,000
'59 MGA, engine good, body needs work $500
