think you guys gonna be able to recoup most of your money that went in this build? usually cars like this bring less than half that was invested, is the reserve under 75k?

bad-ass car,btw,:thumbsup:

Stephan, Keep in mind it was built "in house" as there car.
Not speaking for the Roaster Shop, but Im assuming it was hard cost payroll and material in lieu of customer rate billing. If its going for under 75k Id be surprised its worth more IMO

Awesome work, very impressive. Colors and graphics are spot on. Interior work is equally nice. Did Thrash do the graphics?

The reserve is definitely higher than $75K. I said it was a reasonable reserve, not that I was giving the car away. :) There is more than that in parts alone. We are fully aware of where the market is and what this type of car can realistically bring. All of that was kept in mind through out the build and design process.

"Usually"; as in what people on the internet 'think'. :rolleyes:

Believe it or not, there ARE people out there that can build cars, and make a profit on them. It happens all the time. But not according to internet land.

Under $75k? Get real! If they'd sell that car for anywhere near that, no one in their right mind would even be fooling with these cars. Might was well just flush money right down the toilet, it'd be a lot easier.

I like the idea of the red pinstripe on the wheel, we talked about it in the initial design phases, but have seen it on so many cars that it was some what of a turn off. We may still do it though.

Thanks to everyone else for the positive comments and acceptance of the car.

I think you need to put a stripe on the lips to give it a feel their is a wheel on the car sitting still .Again KILLER JOB:willy: :willy:

Heck, I'll give you 75grand, finish paying for the interior that is getting done, I'll even pay you guys to finish it and work the bugs out. You can take your time on it too. Just tell me when it done. I'll even pick it up!!! I was thinking 175 would be a good reserve for you guys!!! I guess some people don't get out to see your work.
