I watched the end of this auction.  Sold for $201,000 USD.  An amazing build and worth every penny.

I've been joying the ISSIMI video series of rare classic cars but what I didn't know until tonight is that they are also a dealer.  Initially thought this Ferrari looked awkward but after watching this it really is a work of art in every detail.  Also, I have as much respect for the guys who painstakingly restore these things as I do the original builders.  Worth every penny imo.

In today's episode of Am I Delusional...
1977 Comet restored 302 auto 78000 original miles $28,000


Or you can buy a project from him instead for only $6000 more than it's worth.
1977 COMET PROJECT 6CYL
Maybe if it was a small bumper car (i.e. pre 1973)


$6000 race car anyone? VW Golf MK2 Rally Car


Someone's spent their life high...and still are. 1980 Ford Fairmont $3900  :rofl:
He should do standup since he's (obviously) a comedian.


2003 Mercury Marauder for $15,500?  Seems...much.


Not my favourite car/style...but maybe this aint a half bad deal.  A 383 and a 4 spd?  Burn rubber baby!
1978 Malibu 383 4 Speed $9,500

Nah...that's too much for that.

Bubba!!!!!!  1966 Chrysler 300 - only $12,500!! (only!)

I really like this. Does not seem like a horrible deal for something unique.

Yep, I dig it. Those Brooklands Windscreens and Lucas PL headlamps are worth a few bucks themselves.

It was spotted in Florida a few weeks ago, now it's apparently in Utah.    It looks very methy

Apparently they've framed in an upstairs door since that picture.

It would be tempting to drop a Hemi in it, but I'd keep the slant-six.
