I had to get this car ready for a regular customer of mine who was selling it at the RM auction here in FT.Lauderdale. The reserve is set at 100K. The car was build in a 6 week period by one guy and the pics don't come close to representing what it really looks like.

Nice Job! Car looks good my I would never give anywhere near 100K for it.
 
Very nice detail!
The paint is only nice thing about that car, though.
 
the car is nicely done..nice work you put into the detail..your talking about a build that was completed in a 6 week period (something i thought only Boyd Coddington could pull off)you have to respect the hard work that was put into this car..also i see quite a few details other then the paint that make this car stand out...nice work and good luck to the owner....

Drive a resto-mod or pro-touring and might change your mind, some of these cars are nutz. I want to do a pro-touring style black 66/67 Chevelle but don't want to lay that cash out right now. You guys have to see Rob Drydeks 69' Camaro that was just finished (the skater, Big and Rob etc), car is insane.

blk - who built the car down here?

Surfer, it was done by a guy named jeremy, i think Miranda is the last name. His shop is called Miranda Built, he's in lauderdale right off Dixie, between commercial and oakland. He used to work for , #### forgot his name, the guy that was on biker buildoff a few times, thundercycles on sunrise blvd. If he had more time, he said he could have done abetter job. They are already working on the next one with an LS3.

I know everyone knows the big names, but IMO its the lesser known, smaller, shops that do the best work....a lot of times with the big name guys your just paying for the name as some of the work I've seen was good but not for what they've charged (save for maybe Troy Trepanier).
 
Absolutely right, there's lots of talent out there, just not many are widely known. As far as the price, the last one they did, which was with a LS1, no air ride, lesser paint scheme, etc. sold for 83K. A guy just walked in the Vette shop were it was on consignment and bought it on the spot. He also just sold 67, tri power vette for 120K.

Sick, I may have to talk to this guy, some point possible this year after I get some stuff out of way, want to grab a 66/67 Chevelle and go all out on, TT built LS6 etc.
 
Since i sometimes post pics way after i did the work, i don't always remember what is used exactly, i know it's kinda retarded. I started with Menzerna SIP with a green edge pad, some spots also using the blue pad, followed by 106FF and topped it off with P21 carnauba. There were some small issues that i had to address first with Menz power gloss and a wool pad before the SIP. The car hasn't sold yet and it will go back to the painter to fix some minor issues and then i'll gat it back. Hopefully this time i can take better pics with more light.
 
$100k for that clunker??

I rather by a brand new z06 and still have money left over for mods.
 
Funny how many people seem to be willing to pay that kind of money for such a "clunker". And this guy has a ZO6 also with mods.

Ehhh, as I said before. Go drive a restored muscle car, I don't mean restored to original specs, I mean restomod with modern parts and custom fabrication. They can drive and handle as well as a modern sports car, and very solid (put together better then originally). Drive one of these "clunkers"....you'll be suprised.
