Re: wow, really? part prices

Look to the Chevelles and Novas. There was a time NO ONE would consider building a (gasp !) 4 door Chevelle or Nova or heaven forbid even a Tri-five. Seeing more and more of these at the local shows. Good buildable units are drying up and two door hardtops and coupes are going for crazy money. A lot of that is due to the Barrett/Jackson syndrome where anybody with a rusted out two door anything thinks the rotted out hulk is at least worth $4 or 5K.
"It's gotta be worth $30 - $35 grand when it's done" No mention of the $25 to $30 grand spent to get it there.
