Shouldn't it have a H-pipe intead of two seperate pipes?

Why yes it should. Those aren't Chrysler style mufflers either. That & the automatic transmission should Knock at least a buck and a quarter large off the 300 grand asking price.

I guess for those that have lots of money, buying something like this is normal.  But if I was investing in a wing car, it wouldn't be something better than new that I would be so paranoid to drive and enjoy.  Just adding miles would stress me out when they are that low.  So what do you do, spend a fortune and just stare at it?

I'd drive the heck out of it.. Being repainted and obviously most everything mechanically been replaced/restored, the original 16K miles mean nothing to me. If this was a survivor (original paint/interior, etc), then that "might" be a different story. I'd have to get the correct air cleaner base for that, it would drive me crazy.. The patched together exhaust would have to go bye-bye as well..... Also, and Jim would be proud of me, get a correct washer bottle. The little things sometime scream.....

On a positive note, that thing would be AWESOME to own for sure. It needs some detailing things here and there, but it would be fun....

For 300 large, it shouldn't need any detailing. Not one thing.

I agree,  but with the wrong motor , wrong trans, and with the work thats been done, to me the mileage is moot point and is nothing more than a marketing tool

the exhaust and the washer bottle is just the beginning

Wrong air cleaner base, too!
