<VV> Refurbished Sedans?

[Eric S. Eberhard]

In the very long run EM sedans will become more and more collectable as 
well.  Nobody has been interested in them.  So they have little value and 
very few people restore them. Junk yards crush them all the time.  People 
cannibalize them for coupes and convertibles.  A good example is 40's 
vintage Cadillacs where the sedans were worth 1/100th of a coupe (which was 
half of a convertible).  Sedans are now competitive with the coupes and 
they in turn are closer to convertible prices.
