'64 27P is a pretty common Bonneville/Star Chief 389 when backed by a Super Hydramatic and without A/C.

EUN 056351 was assembled sometime in mid Oct I believe (too lazy to check my '64 Engine Log). Depending on which Final Plant installed it, probably came out of a build from early to mid Nov. '63 (or even late Oct).

'64 Fremont builds will show their original EUN on the PHS record and will match the '64 Ident-O-Plate which shows EUN 587914.

That engine was assembled a couple weeks before the end of '64 engine assembly as was the car itself. My engine log stops around EUN 610000 or thereabouts.

I read thru the posts here.

As a '64 owner I'm biased. I don't disagree with the valuation estimates. But I was shocked recently when a '65 hardtop recently sold for $71,000 on BaT. It was nice enough but......

Not too long ago, a '64 convertible went unsold, didn't hit $45,000 IIRC.

I know what I think they should be worth but when I see auction results like these two, I realize there is no accounting for what Buyers will pay or not pay. Only truism, they are worth what a buyer will pay.
