Wow, Absolutley beautiful car. If you guys get a chance, check it out. 3.2 six, a lot of hand made parts. $70,000.00 budgeted ended up with $130,000.00 in receipts. Has anyone seen this car in person?
I was looking for some pictures to posts, maybe someone has some? I want to find out the color, looks greenish blue... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

If you put a 3.2 into a real speedster you have a high likelyhood of getting shot...some of the religious faction might start a militia and hunt your ass down. Building a 130k replica with a 3.2 for that kind of money....I want a client like that...alot of profit in that project. Rich |

Neato car, really cool one off parts, thought he went a bit overboard with badges but just one man's opinion.
Has to be a real hoot to drive mad. Ferg |

Bah, maybe I just know people, I see one for sale in Chicago is asking $125k and it looks like a great driver, 1955. I also see a 99/100 show car that is asking 185 but that seems like a bit much. If you want a hotrod, I also know of a 1960 roadster for sale with a RS-spec 2.7 in it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I'd love to have a convertible D or roadster, but they are just too much for me...oh well...a solid coupe is good enough for me. If I want top-down driving, that's what the 914 is for. |
