Found on Craigslist. It's a pretty loaded '56 Fireflite 4-dr hardtop showing factory air, dual rear antennas and what looks like a steering wheel watch.

I am just interested to see what everyone's take is on this. Is this car rather high priced for a parts car since for the most part no matter where it goes you will still have to transport it for maybe another $500. This is not to mention the labor to remove the parts. I would just like to see what value car folks put on these cars. I may want to puts around with parts cars during retirement.
Scrap price? Maybe $600?? But it has factory A/C, wheel clock (maybe) and a "good" running engine. I'm guessing the engine will end up in a T Bucket and the rest will go the the crusher.
Have a nice day

Either this is a flip or whomever was trying to sell it a few months ago for $800 found out a steering wheel watch might be somewhat valuable.
