To put it in perspective, I have a '72 SS. It was missing: engine, trans, rear, entire brake system (well, it did have the brake pedal) It was dented, damaged (sideswiped from front fender to tailights, then bondo'ed) and rusty.
Was it worth fixing? No. Would I do it again? Yeah! Would I pay a premium for a Supercar in similar condition? Yes, without question. It's my hobby, I LOVE a car with a " <font color="green"> patina </font> " the more history the better... I honestly have more fun walking a junkyard than walking around a car show... Oh yeah, my car had at LEAST 6 engines (350, 307, 383, 400, 402, 350) and 6 paintjobs (silver, blue, red, black, red and silver again) Sometimes value doesn't have anything to do with it (insanity does [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] ) he he he But seriously, Chevy isn't building any more of these cars, many of people associated with converting them are deceased so if you want a real one in some cases you have to go to extremes! |
