I don't see the point in spending more than 10k on a gbody especially if its not an ero, gn, etc.
I could even find a rust gn in a back field n buy it for 2-3 g and put 3g into body and have an imaculate car and still save 3g I could use in the motor.
true....but youd never get what you spent out of it....hence the reason people pay high dollar for a low mileage car...cause it will increase its value over time...same cannot be said for a total resto on a high mile car.

that is true about the low mileage car but while I would have the same invested in resto at least I'd be able to enjoy the resto and put bigger brakes, exhaust etc and have a beauty and car to enjoy instead of a 10g lawn ornament lol

And for the elco I think you guys are wrong, The 8.5g isn't in the rickster sticker it's to pay for the dirt on the air cover and rust in the valve covers. That right there is Prince Edward Island dirt, It is so high in Iron that we use it to dye shirt to sell and grow famous potatoes so the GOV tax's all the dirt in out engine bays so he only gets 1500 for the elco the rest go to our soil tax.

.If you plan to ask 10k for an elco at least make sure you clean the air cover and have it detailed.

Now that's a good point.
If you're gonna ask 10k for a car, you could at least polish the water spots off of your chrome air filter lid. :roll: It's a very dirty looking engine. I know sometimes you can only do so much, but you could fix those water spots with a t-shirt.

EDIT: Dude, I really didn't realize I was typing exactly what you already said until I read it. Whoops.

If you guys think those prices are high look at this, 200k on it, and needs a paint job but he still thinks it's worth 10g. I don't care how much he says he has in the motor, if you put a few grand into your motor you're gonna atleast make it look clean.

sadly these are the normal crazy prices for my area for elco's
