While sifting through the folder of receipts and records for my '76, I found the sales contract where my car was sold Used in 1977 (after apparent short "new" ownership)
Sale price was $7500 financed at 13%!!! According to the U.S. Department of Labor, my cars "purchase price" was equivalent to $25235.00 at a 5 year rate, here's what the previous owner would have paid: Cumulative Payments: $34,450.52 Total Interest Paid: $9,215.52 CarLoanCalculator Enjoy the Calculator and see what your car was "worth"....
