$300,000 invested.......WOW, you walked into that backwards with your pants already down. :doh:

No doubt. Actually, I want to see all the receipts.

Why don't any of those awful wheels sit correctly in the wheel openings? What exactly is up with that horrible blue paint on the dash? That's arguably the tackiest engine bay I've ever seen--kind of surprised it's not painted black, but not surprised that the core support isn't. And why would one waste time building a 484-inch 383, when starting with a 400 would've netted another 28 cubes or more? Were matching numbers really a concern here?

There's absolutely nothing remarkable about this car. I wish I could be at the auction to see the owner's face when bidding stalls below $40K... or $30K, if it's not a real-deal 383/stick R/T.

$300k? I'll build any of you a car to your exacting standards for half that
