At least you understand them and the point of all the rediculous on them. I think most people just bash to bash. The work involved in a car like that is insane, and I can respect the glass work in it. I dont nec. agree with the entire idea, but that's what the guys want. Something wild and attnetion grabbing at the next show. And this is it. 99 percent of the cars here wouldnt win a trophy at a show, just like 99 percent of the cars at a show couldnt run a decent 1/4. A purpose built vehicle is just that. Rock crawlers, mud drags, mini trucks, iasca, db drag, and just show cars are 99 percent built for what the owner wants.
That out of the way, this guy is crazy if he thought for a second he was going to get that much for such a specialty car.
