For a "body" man that's a nice deal. Hang and paint an originale rear clip back on the car and "ask" $12,000 for the car. Buy it for $3,000, fix it for $2,000 and flip it for $10,000. Not bad.

I have been watching the Chopper shows today on tv and was wondering why they can do that to motorcycles and it is great. Do something to a vette like this and it is
