The median 1953 Chevrolet Bel Air sold for $29,975 in 2014, against $24,750 in 2013. Each row is the median of the verified sales recorded in that calendar year, so it moves with the mix of mileages and options that came to market as well as with the market itself.
| Year | Median sale | Sales |
|---|---|---|
| 2014 | $29,975 | 4 |
| 2013 | $24,750 | 6 |
Years with fewer than three verified USD sales are omitted — a one-sale “median” is a single car, not a market.
