Metropolitan

[Old Lar]

Found a 59 Metropolitan from Arizona, original with 39K miles on the odometer. My thoughts are a forty-eight year old car that may need an overhaul at the minimum.

The $7000 price tag seems high to me. Any opinions on the value of this car?

hmmm,

My best suggestion is skimming Hemmings on line to see if anything comprable has been or is currently being listed That's the problem when dealing with unpopular older cars. Everybody knows what a first gen Camaro or Mustang will fetch, but try and place value on these cars and it's a guessing game of personal value really.

Contact the Metropolitan Pit Stop in Noth Hollywood, California. They are the world headquarters for parts and service on Metros. (818) 769-1515 or Google for their website!

Depends on the condition. I found a website that has a rough estimate of what these little cars are worth, I will try to find it and post it for you.

Unless you have a wife that you want to drive crazy, I would pass.
