One of the most beautiful dash/gauge clusters ever, gone.
Like ripping Scarlett Johansson's eyeballs out and replacing them with ping pong balls.

I won't even start on the engine bay.

But he has all the Pep Boys receipts to show what a bargain you're getting!

Very well put. I was thinking the same thing about the dash but couldnt have worded it so well.

It sounds like he does have a pile of cash in it. However you dont get that kind of return out of a moded C body. Hell, even if it were restored He may have had to hope for that return.

I mean, I get what happens. I did the same with my 68, though not in nearly as grotesque a way... I took a perfectly good numbers matching low mile car and beefed it all up. I was young and wanted to go fast.... but I never expected anyone to pay for my interests. Had I, I likely would have been asking at least 15,000 for the car as that was what I had in it all things said. But I knew that in the end it was a very straight, clean,68 Monaco and I charged accordingly.

All I'm saying is if you go the route of modifications, do them for yourself and understand that most others won't give a squirt about them let alone like them enough to give you a premium price for the car.
