I don't usually lust over cars in general, but for this one, I'll make an exception.
I remember reading about this car and drooling over the pics of the suspension, etc. Dreaming could I do this. Reality hit me as the money is deep on this build. This car is so fast....it defies reason. The color. Pretty amazing power (382.6 hp) to weight (1860 lbs) ratio. Just about everything on the car is killer. If I wasn't already knee deep in too many projects as it is (914-6 conversion project completion, 73 RSR hotrod refresh, 63 VNB Vespa restoration and finally a vintage race go kart project), I'd be bidding on this one for sure. Will be fun to watch. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/custom-po...-race-car-3-8l/ |

As much as I would love to see this car fetch top dollar, race cars on BAT without collector pedigree seem to have a tough time selling. If this were a streetable hot rod, not hard to reach $80k, but as a race car it will have a more limited bidding pool.
My guess is it stalls at $45-50k. Hope I am wrong. I bought my 3.2 advertised as a track car for about $10-15k under what it would have sold as a street hot rod. Spent much more good money building back into a street rod - windows, interior, turn signals, wiring, and complete engine And transmission rebuild. I would not have seen any return if I had kept as a race car. |
