ND, and he didn’t color coordinate well.  I would have made the paint on the rollbar and top material match the color of the wheels.  The motor transplant looks pretty good, though.

That’s fine, if you judge a car solely by financial standards. For me, old cars are a hobby. Sometimes I make money or break even; usually I lose :).

I may be a weirdo, but I’ve always thought it would be cool to find one of these “new” older cars and daily it like it was 1994 (or 1975, 1986 etc.).  NP because there is probably none better on planet earth.

IMHO many politicians are sociopaths.  Normal people don’t run for office.

Because he’s a big fat liberal.

The best C3 is a 1968.

I was more offended by the fact he was sitting in a tri-5 Chevy in the lead photo.  A generic classic car if there ever was one.

Agreed.  I think that black cab and chassis would look great with just a flatbed.
