Not Ranked
Steve,
I will agree $75 is a bottom number. Your time, skill, and personal touch is priceless. However, if you break down the car and the current state of the economy the price would not be considerably higher.
You had a one of a kind replica of a truly historic racecar. However, your racecar (i know you drove it on the street for quick 300 mph blasts on route 80) honestly should never have been driven on the street. Your engine builder probably would have kicked your butt if he knew you drove it anywhere but the track.
Regardless, that racecar would not be eligible for any sanctioning body other than SCCA/EMRA/NASA/etc. and no one in their right mind would race that car in any of those crash-derbys. As a result the only real customer for that car would be either a serious collector, a gambling investor, an overseas buyer, or that one in a million enthusiast like yourself that I have yet to meet.
Now get that damn Cup car so we can have some real fun.

but we would all agree on one thing...
if you got ol' CS to auction that car off at Barrett Jackson you would have enough money to buy that cup car, an 18wheeler to transport it, and enough Ray Bestos girls to crew for a Winston Cup Race!
