That comes to about $17500 today using an inflation calculator.
Which is far lower than a new car costs today.
If you hunt you can still find them in the 18-20k range. But you get cheap shit like a Nissan Versa, tiny compacts with bad drivetrains. Not a higher trim boat like that 1941 is.
And certainly not something you can upgrade to a V8 for an extra $25.
