Re: only 825,000 thousand
I would buy a plane for that money. Although I really do like the color on the 3100. Looks nice. BBS LMs are a bad choice, I can see where tire rack donated

Re: only 825,000 thousand
For almost a million dollars you would think that it wouldn't have paint flaking off of the roll bar and grey primer in the door jam area (with exterior paint overspray on it as well)!

What a hack job. Could they have done any worse on the wiring if they tried?

Re: only 825,000 thousand
That sum ***** better be made of platinum. I dont see how people can honestly think they can get that kind of money for a hacked up 5 window.

Re: only 825,000 thousand
Interesting that they do not show any pictures of the mechanicals, frame before the body went on etc. Why take a photo with the center console torn apart and filthy carpets? Also don't say how well it did in the Cannonball, just that it entered. I think the $400K is way over stated or someone has more money than common sense.

Re: only 825,000 thousand
For $825,000 dollar they couldn't upgrade the stock door latches. I am not sure that I would trust them to hold upto the 1050 hp.
Greg - that makes yours worth at least $500,000........ What a joke. Marc |

Re: only 825,000 thousand
About 805,000 more than I'd be willing to pay. With 825K you could build a nice shop, tools, beer, and build that truck. You'd even have some left over to buy the wife/girlfriend something nice to keep her happy till the build was over. But, that's just my 2 pennies.

Re: only 825,000 thousand
I am pretty sure your all missing the engine bay shot with twin enzo ferrari motors in it. That would come close to the price. Oh yeah, I was day dreaming.
I also want some of what that guy has.... ![]() |

I clicked on one picture and I've seen enough. For the money, it's an absolute pile, no matter what the history.

Re: only 825,000 thousand
Over 400K invested?...must be talking about the stock market or his retirement and now he's down 825K that's all I can figure.

Re: only 825,000 thousand
Honestly? It does NOTHING for me.
FOr that kind of money I could buy several cars/trucks I truly loved AND put $500,000 in the bank. I guess that just goes to show my taste is kinda cheap, huh? Oh well. You know what they say: Success isn't getting what you want, its wanting what you have. |

Re: only 825,000 thousand
I'm not familiar with Classic Car Guy, but maybe it costs $800,000 to advertise there. That would explain the money he has invested in it.

Re: only 825,000 thousand

$82,500,,,and THAT would be stretching it.Every time I see something listed for a STUPID price,,,somebody has to come along and get stupider ! Some people just need ta be slapped-KB |

Re: only 825,000 thousand
I'm thinking that they meant to say $8250, but even then I would not even consider it. Either way that truck would need to get a lot more done to it.

Re: only 825,000 thousand
Am I the only one that realized that the asking price is in "Mexican Pesos" which would be roughly $8,250.00
