I am curious...
....(not yellow) about what has happened to the remaining Series 1 chassis and engines? I know when SAI/Venture split that Venture was left with the remaining inventory (so I have been told) but I know SAI had ALL 500 Olds engines on hand and that there supposedly close to 300 chassis built so subtract 249 cars delivered and that still leaves a bunch of parts floating around someplace.
All crap about the Series 1 aside, I would think Venture would want to divest itself of this "asset" and generate some cash. Perhaps someone else would take over, possibly rebody the remaining chassis or offer "genuine" Series 1 replicas?
I should think if this stuff can be bought cheap enough it would be possible to offer them at a price point that would allow them to sell and generate a modest profit.
