I guess it's all in what you compare it to, compared to these, this one would be easy.

I have visited the dealer "Hollywood Car club". When my wife and I were down for the LA Lit meeting, we decided to go see a car they had. It was a B coupe, advertised to be in outstanding shape, a solid car with "great potential". It was priced just about what you would be willing to pay for a complete driver with typical wear and tear. We found a car that was not operational, some parts missing from engine, had bubbles under the paint at all the worst places, rusted battery box, and was, at best, a candidate for a partial to full restoration. We looked at several cars, they had many and they were all highly inflated in price for what you would expect from the description. Where they find these cars, and they have a big inventory usually, I have no idea. Many would be good projects if the price were better. JMHO

Shipping of course, everything has been loosely bolted in place or placed inside for Easy shipping. On another note, couple cool parts on the car like the bench seat and GT fuel tank.

And it's missing the D specific trim pieces, and was sitting in hawaii for some time. Hope you're up on your tetanus shot! They paid $80+Shipping. Still not the end of the world. I'm sure they would take $85. Then $200- $300k and 5 years of your life... You'll have a nice car worth $150
