Confession: I have been all over this car as I had some vague notion of buying it at a low price and just driving it. Three coupe friends, two of them intimately familiar with the inner and outer workings of coupes had the same advice: Run Away! If someone had met the Reserve, let's say $38,000. plus BaT fees, taxes and transport they would have been looking at Around $43,000 in. Looking at the W&N prices, sale prices at that, each part would have been double or more the sale price when you add shipping. Impossible to estimate the R&R number of an experienced body shop at let's say $125. an hour(a guesstimate probably low). Quality paint and the prep: ten$ of thousand$ of Dollar$. VSR, are you listening?
A question for VSR, rsporsche, sfdon, H B Chris, Markos, et al, what do you think a final number would be? I ask this so when other cars like this come up for sale, novice buyers like me, who dream the impossible dream, would be much better prepared to make a smart decision.
