Here's a little trivia in response to the above:

A 1964 356C Porsche SC Coupe,  POE Teaneck, NJ,   listed for $4.750.00*

Although that Porsche looks pretty cheap thirty-seven years after the 
fact....not too many "normal people" could really afford to pay $4,750.00 for 
a mid-range sports car.  MGB's  and TR4s were selling for $2,000 less, while 
the  Aston Martins and Ferraris were "only" selling for $7,500.00 more!     
Yikes.... I'll take a half a dozen 275GTBs ...and put them away for a rainy 
day!   Perhaps the real measuring stick is that  100 octane, leaded gas was 
$.40 a gallon....
