3.0 CSa Resto Mod

[RonP]

After several interested parties that have now gone by the wayside, I have spoken with owner/builder of the car and have now convinced him that he will need to take a big loss on the car if he wants to sell it. I know this car has caused quite a frenzy on both sides of the opinion fence, so hopefully we have gotten past all of that now. The new price is $59,500 obo.

We don't want it to get ugly again, so no bashing this time around. I will be checking regularly.

I've seen this Coupe and it is impressive. There isn't a doubt this car is worth every penny of the current asking. There was so much thought put into the build. Every detail under the hood looks as if it was executed by the factory. Good luck RonP.

56% off of the original price is quite a haircut. I feel vindicated in my original post.

Well it is not accurate, 43.33% has come off of the original price - the new price is 56.66% of the old one.

Sorry for the confusion you are correct 43% isn't that OFF isn't that big of a haircut at all. :roll:

I wish I had sold some of the equities I own and bought this car. My losses would have been smaller plus I would have a nice car. No vindication for me when this car did better than the alternative .
