Default Re: Barret Jackson - What do you like?

------So you are saying that the Nabors did a poor restoration, huh??? It would be the first one I have heard of. Like them and Terry or not I think the car was restored well. I looked it over pretty darn good at Meadowbrook this past August and couldnt find anything to complain about except over-restoration. Personally,,, in this instance I can forgive them that! Just about everyone on the planet knows what condition it was in prior to restoration, so I dont think there are any surprizes there. I believe at least part of the money is going to charity, but Terry is always the bad guy,,,right??? Yah,,, he probably wouldnt do anything nice. Hes just a used car guy.......Bill S

Bill, I have heard conflicting stories on the car. I did not hear that Nabors did the restoration. Matter of fact in Hemmings Muscle Machines (3-4 issues back) the article stated Proteam completed the restoration - mentioned nothing of Nabors. I'm not doubting the car the car is nice, maybe I jumped the gun because I have not seen it, but how much of the car is original? In a place like BJ where there are more 435hp ’67 Vettes that started life as 300hp automatics, all I am saying is buyer beware.
