He has one too many zeros on the price.
No wonder he is tired of the "looky loos and tire kickers". Going to be a very long time before he finds someone with a lot more money than brains.

That front windshield is absolutely ridiculous.
I'd say two too many zeros

Funny that you mention this.

I was about to post that you guys were way too hard on this guy and that $10 k is a pretty good buy for a 427 69 in need of some restoration.

Then I looked again

It almost looks as if it could`ve been a Corvette at one time.... but if it was, why would someone do THAT to it?

LOl I thought it was 10K when I originally posted it also. A strategically missing comma maybe?

Well that's not right.


It would make a good Matchbox/Hotwheels car along with Shaggy's wagon and HR Puff'n'stuffs car.

Maybe that price is in Thai Baht, that would be about $3350US that sounds about right.

Having flashbacks. Anyone remember the beginning and end sequences of the Saturday morning Pink Panther cartoon show?

Not what I would do to my car, but pretty tasteful for a wild '70's custom. It would catch my eye if I saw it on the road or a car show.

$100,000 is really a steal, for a "one off prototype". Someone here should seriously consider grabbing it!
