Just watch last night and they had the F40 on there. Now I have been in the collision industry for 26 years and they are nuts

First cool car but he is going to lose his azz on that car. Anyone that can afford a F40 isn't looking to get one that was rebuilt on a TV show?? Well let me say they aren't going to pay to much for a total car that was rebuilt. Very entertaining for TV and I love the show.

I asked them what they are doing with it, they said probably keeping it, so that means probably can't sell it.

I had a client that bought one about 5 years back that was owned by a famous racer originally. Fittipaldi I think, but I can't remember exactly. He paid $495k for that car and it was Pebble Beach clean. I don't get the car on the show. To have nearly double that in a "modded" F40 is bank account suicide. There's always movement in rare Ferrari numbers, but not 200% guys. I like the show and I'd like to see another small shop make it, but last night was kinda silly. There's not a whale with his head screwed on right that would pay any real money for an F40 hit that hard, fixed by that shop. They're not rare cars since they made over 1300 of them.

I like the show. It has a good entertainment factor with cars / hotrods, but doesn't have the drama like WCC, OCC, American Hotrod ect. Regarding the price I found this when I was looking for more pictures.

Sounds like the purchase price might have been inflated hard to say for sure. Either way I'll keep watching it.
