Love the play on words... So many twists and turns someone might believe his ramblings. He's probably is an attorney or used car salesman

Totally clueless. He is going to have that car on his hands for a LONG time.
Takes an original 350 2-bbl '69 vert, sticks a 400 in it and thinks worth as much as a T/A
2012 Mustang Boss 302 #1918, Competition Orange. FGF replacement
2006 Mustang V6 Pony, Vista Blue. Factory ordered.
2019 BMW X3 (Titled to the wife, but I'm always driving it for her. So I'm claiming it)
Old projects, gone but not forgotten:
1967 FB 400, original CA car. After 22 years of work, trashed by the guy who was supposed to paint it. I had to sell it.
1980 Turbo Trans Am
1970 Mustang fastback, 351C 4Bbl, auto
1988 Mustang GT, 5 speed
1983 F-150 4x4, built 302
1994 Chevy K2500 HD 4x4, 454 TBI

Mark,
After 2 beers last night, I almost spit up my last sip after I observed the same assertion..an original 2 bbl 350 with an asking price of a RA car.
The guy wants EVERY penny he spent on his restoration PLUS. That is insane.
In particular interest was this statement.
"There was no rust repair. Any problem was replaced with new metal; front pans and pass side qtr."
Huh?

for that much mone you think it would have the factory radio and uncut dash.
atleast it has the tri-side guges underneath.
i guess he wasnt able to afford the trigauges and had to get em separate?
my car is a vert with a 350 so if i put my 428 in will it be worth 100k? 1 of 1?

A similar car, although all original and with a 4-speed, sold at Barrett Jackson for over 60k. I'm sure that is where he came to the conclusion that his peiced together car was worth just as much. I have heard the argument that those auctions just give owners false ideas of what real cars are worth and I guess this proves it.

It's rare because everyone hates it so much they are no longer column shift. I just love the center console... So much time and effort to go to autozone to pick out..  "needs body work and pain". bet it wasn't a typo...

Anyone wanting to convert their floor shift auto over to the rare column shift I just happen to have a '69 column shift steering column that I will let go for somewhere in the $2-3k range. I'll even throw in a clock delete plate.
