I'VE SEEN THIS CAR. It's nice, but $160,000 plus........... I bet that resto shop had a big smile on their faces for a year.....easy. That's just friggin' nutz. Couldn't any one tell that he wasn't taking his medication. OK i'm done!

Hmmmmmm...... From what I can see, it doesn't look like it's even a frame-off job!  Anyone know for sure? Ralph |

I've seen it before and quite frankly have tried to forget about it. That's just what he supposedly spent on it, he will never make that money back.

That article is from 2005. The only way humanly possible to sdpend that much on a mediocre resto is to pay a shop that charges by the hour to do it.

actually its from june or july of 2001... i have the issue. that car is lame. the tail pipes look like hell with the rusty clamps pointing down, it has a two-tone red and black interior with blue ricer pedal covers from walmart and blue 5 point harnesses, and cereal box fog lights hanging from the front bumper. the shaker scoop is kind of cool because it's different, but doesn't fit the lines of the car. the wheels dont look right on there either in my opinion. it says ol' papa joe built this badass 455 with edelbrock heads and stuff, but in all actuality it has a 65 400 with a heads in it... i dunno, that guy got ripped off worse than anyone ive ever seen.

Looks like it's a lesson on how NOT to do a resto! Ralph |
