i would spend it on my current project and if i had to buy a new car, i would a buy a 13 vert and start the exact same build, only because after owning a vert, it will be very hard to go back to a hard top.

What I have a hard time grasping, beyond the value of the car, is why people are so concerned if its over priced or not... Let the man try to have a clean sale. If there is a buyer out there that wants to pay 12k for the car, complete the way it sits, thats up to them. It may be worth it to them to have it done, they just tag it, insure it and drive it...

Again, good luck to the OP and please, lets let this subject die, its not fair to him. The PURCHASER can decide on their own if its worth it to THEM and in THEIR budget.
