In the grand scheme of car prices, $1500 is pretty close for a thin-trading car like the C36.

Thanks for all your information. The fenders on this example were completely rolled from end to end so it sounds like additional rolling was done here as the lip edge was folded over on itself and went right to the very end of the wheelwell opening. I know from reading here that the '97 is the best year to get and is likely worth a premium. The example I have seen is a '96 and the thought is that for a few thousand more I can get a C43. Logic is telling me that and extra $4K for a three year newer car....is the way to go. Kind of like the "newer is better" thinking. But please tell me if there is an error in my thinking as I have only recently started to research this particular model.
