I talked to the guy on the phone. Said they sold 2 other ones in worse shape for more money (12K and 14K I think). If you look at the bottom of the car, the crossmember at the tranny was rotted through and had a piece welded on. She was rough. I think guys are starting to realise how much money it actually takes to restore a car properly, and dreams of making a 'quick' $100K on a Hemi clone just don't seem to pan out. I've met SOOO many people who have way too much money into their cars, and can't figure out why they can't sell it!
Well, I'm sure these guys did alright. Looks like a $500 barn car to me. I do hope the next guy does well on it! It sure is amazing how many of these ragtops are rotted. Stands to reason I guess...
