Default Re: First 2 firebirds in the news

Just watched it last night and it made me completely sick. I have nothing against making money but I do when it comes to taking advantage of someone else and especially when it comes to destroying a piece of history. These cars deserved a much better restoration than they received. You cannot restore a car to "concours" quality in 60 days....sorry! The claimed cost of total restoration was also a complete joke. Not sure where they came up with their figures other than for show drama. I agree on needing more car tv shows but not at the expense of ruining these cars. Some of these guys need to go find a dirty lethargic pig, clean it up, feed it and sell it for a profit instead of making a pig out of some of the cars. They are making a mockery of our hobby. Let the flaming begin.
