Something like that is worth $8000 at the VERY LEAST, even with close to 200k miles. Those were all entirely hand-built too until '95. The more I'm reminded of this program, the more sickened I am. |

Despite any modern, popular notion in this country... You really can't have your cake and eat it too. | I for one am glad that shit isn't as expensive here as in other countries, and we have more market choices. I would think most people here prefer less government interference in the market. I sure as hell do. | | Cadillac Discussion Tools | | |
