Charging a premium to bolt on parts in the 60s was pretty slick, and pulling the same stunt again 40 years later on the same cars! What a concept if it works.
Gotta hand it to him, if people are willing to fall prey and pay it, they deserve to be taken. What's even more hilarious are the people at auctions that get caught up in the hype and pay $140k for cars like this.
Parts are parts, engines are engines, paint is paint, and wheels are wheels - especially when you can buy the same stuff over the counter and finish it as well or nicer for 1/3 the price or better.
Goin out with a Bang!
