I found this one 1.2 miles from my house. I have offered the owner some trade, and so far no luck....
I know a few people on here have seen them and I know Tom (collecture) bought one for around $1900 in 2005.
Thought I would open up the discussion again?
What is a reasonable price to pay for one??
Has anybody found one lately?
How many were actually made? Speculation is 200-300 units?
It's neat unit but how much is it worth? What is worth giving up or paying??
I doubt I will have the opportunity to get it, but I feel it's at least worth a discussion....
Thanks!

They are uncommon...I have only seen a few ever.
I'd still pay that amount.

That 1 door is in pretty solid condition. Seems like those are almost once in a lifetime type finds. How much you want it? I think I'd fork out the $1900 also.

I don't think I will be able to get it. I offered the owner one of my RT 56's....

Wow !
That's the perfect size for my needs. The 2 or 3 door Victors are just too big for me.

This is probably at the top of my wish list. Smaller is better.
Since most Victor end caps are the same, I'm surprised the 3 and 4 door versions are not being cut down to this size.

I noticed in one of the pictures the one side is missing the chrome trim. I was thinking the same thing...has it been cut down to look like a 1 door?? It needs a lot of work.... |

Thanks for putting that thought in my head. Yeah! you could get two or three out of the machine you use for your avatar! I'm going to crank up production to repo the end caps & make a killing, especially those rare RC cola Victors! |

If anyone is serious I know where a nice one is sitting, It is for sale but not cheap. I can get anyone interested hooked up with the owner.
