I really try to not trash anyone else's ride, but this one is disturbing.

Quote: "well over a six figure build" is some sort of bad joke.  Horrific engine compartment and crappy detail work.

And what the f is with the gas cap?  :o

I remember this car, it was featured in a European car magazine. The owner is an Italian man who came to the u.s. for business frequently, and had a shop build this car to his tastes.

I think we discussed it here.

Laugh all you want (and the car in question does nothing for me) but there's no hemi in my car and I'm up to 152 K Cdn at this point... and I've done all the mechanical work and assembly myself on what was a driving car.  :scratchchin: If I was paying for the tear down and component rebuild, on top of the body work and paint I farmed out, I'd be well over 200 by now and I didn't touch the engine and trans significantly. If I did the bill would be that much higher.

I guess the difference might be I know that I'd only get 65k on a very good day when it's all done. Mind you nobody knows what the reserve is set at on the car in question either.... could be 30K to get rid of that ugliness.

NOOOOOO! One of my favorite cars of all time.......with a race pipe very few cars make the spine tingling sound of that flat twelve on full noise. Who ever did that needs beating with a large halibut....other fish are available!

I wouldn't do that, but I am not offended by it.  I figure he did what he wanted, and I am assuming he enjoyed it after it was done.  If he could afford it and it had a place for him, then it is fine by me.  Hopefully it finds someone to give it a nice home as is, or to do again.   :Twocents:
Who in their right mind would say

"The science should not stand in the way of this."? 

Science is just observation and hypothesis.  Policy stands in the way.........

Or maybe it protects us. 

I suppose it depends on the specific case.....
