It's all price based at this point.  Would you pass at say, $16,000?  Of course this is at a dealer (I think) so they doubled the real world price.

This car is on consignment.
The owner, shown in the videos, has it at home.
He says he doesnt care if it sells or not.
He wont budge on price. $30K.

That's a classic overpricing case of "he likes it more that you" 🤦🏻�♂️🤣😖

The owner can chip off some of that rust and make a sandwich of it for all I care.
It needs to go to someone who will save it.

The owners reaction is common in todays market. From my experience.  I have seen Facebook marketplace ads there for well over a year at high prices with no sale. 

Personally, the "I don't need to sell it" or "testing the waters" comments from sellers are a major turn off. This is what happens when a hobby (can) become profitable and incentivized.

Since the seller has the car on consignment, it's easy to sit with his hook in the water indefinitely. He hopes to achieve one of two things: Either catch a fish, or hope to wear the actual owner down to a price to make it worth buying outright. When a car is on consignment, it's often a sign the owner wants too much to begin with. Rarely are consigned cars put into top condition before sale as a caring owner would. Owners of truly excellent examples know what they have and don't the help of consignors.

It's one thing to sit there with your arms folded when you have the ultimate, zero-excuse car. Although this '65 Fleetwood has some strong points, it's a far cry from falling into that category.
