I am supposed to be a car person but help me out here

As talented as you are allen, could you beat out all those panels. That car is a complete loss. That would be a life's labor of love.

And of course there's no paperwork...

 

[churchmouse]

And....just a totaled and stripped out body...no suspension or drive train.

With enuff CDO I know you would make it right.

 

[Bennettjh]

Just for the record. I in no way shape or form would I ever work on that let alone love it if I did

And some lucky pup just won that "car" for a mere $57,200.

 

[other dave]

$57,200 for something the city wouldn't let me keep in my back yard! Go figure.

 

[Clay]

a 1971 Hemi cuda vert in similar shape would sell for upwards of $200K I bet.

its all a matter of supply, demand, with a heavy sprinkling of passion/craziness.

 

[Tnichols00]

That car in good condition is worth 250k plus. So yes it could very well be worth that amount of money its it might be easier to buy that than to try and find one.

I would not pay that though, cause other than the "Perceived Value" its not much of a car. You would be better off buying the EXACT same car as a replica for 25-40k just cause the numbers dont say its original.

Here is a good condition one, dependiong on the year and exact model it changes a lot.

the problem in the car world is someone basically just purchased a serial number...... call it a 'car in a box' if you will.

one day, somewhere, those numbers will pop up on a car........ but will it be the same exact car? depends on who bought the car and where their moral compass points, oh, and how well they document the restoration

[h=3]Vehicle Inspections[/h]Order an inspection to learn more about this vehicle from an independent third party.


Yeah read that, maybe an inspection on who ever bought it would be better.

 

[rockhopper46038]

You'd think they would go ahead and throw in the trailer on the deal...

The answer to Allen's question is a resounding YES! If you bought it for 47K, you coulda resold it for 57.2. Sure as hell beats Money Market savings acct's.

I like the little buggers. Moreso the coupe.

No way I would never get into project like that one though.
