No thanks. If I had 100K to buy a vehicle, I'd wind up with at least two. It's absurd, but some fools do have money... and are soon parted with it, I hear. Even if it was 20K, I don't think I'd buy one. It just doesn't do anything much for me. Now, a '69 Stingray, on the other hand...

If I'm gonna be spending a lot of money on a reproduction old car, I'd rather spend it on something that actually brings something unique to the table.

For that kind of scratch I expect I could get a Caterham Seven, a '32 highboy, and a '69 AMX, if I looked around for decent deals.

For that kind of money, you can buy an Ultima optioned out as a "roller", and thenjoy save your pennies to dump an nelson racing engines tt454 lsx.

1200hp in a sub 2200lb car. :shock:

Describing what HTRN does as "antics" is like describing the wreck of the Titanic as "a minor boating incident" ~ First Shirt
