300 SL Gullwing?

 

How much would that be worth now, £1M+?

[Junkman]

I remember when they were around ten grand. Granted, in 1980s money. So were houses.

No wonder our fathers could buy houses and we can't.

I bet that petrol was expensive back then, though. It costs nothing nowadays.

[Spottedlaurel]

Great selection of cards there JM.

 

Out of curiosity, are you actively buying them now or do you have large stash to scan at quiet moments?

[Junkman]

Buying them becomes increasingly difficult, since most places sell those there modern postcards nowadays, but I still buy them if there is enough chod and/or concrete in them. I still have carton loads to scan.

That is some kind of high roof gs estate. google finds similar ambulance type things with extended overhang, . This one isn't any longer than normal, just higher.

Wow, what miserable penny-pincher bought a flippin' Goliath wagon in '50s America then? That shows a proper dedication to miserable motoring

[mercrocker]

Aye, another one bought a Minx then spunked out on white-walls, whilst somebody else coughed up import duty on a Ponton that was nearly as slow as the Goliath and cost more than a '59 Olds....

[JeeExEll]

Wow, Goliath's a new one to me. Something to check out.

Didn't look too closely, thought it was a Hillman Husky.

[chaseracer]
