10 years from now, they'll still be sitting there, but the price will be higher.

I wouldn't take those pieces of shit off his hands for 12 dollars. He must have better drugs than the rest of us to think those are worth 12k.

If they were rare at all, it would be a matter of buying the VIN and replacing everything under it, but those are nothing special even when new.

If they were model years 70-71 he would have a better chance.

Long ago I had an acquaintance that bought a DESTROYED AAR Cuda and a roller. They literally left the firewall intact and transferred every part over from the other car. I'm not sure I like the ethics of such a move, but I wasn't going to afford it regardless.

I saw an ad on the Jalopy Journal for sale section for an old woody. It was a cowl and a frame.

Hey, it's got a clean title, which is apparently worth $11,995.00.

How about all those Shelby Mustangs that were suddenly "found" back when many wanted one...

I remember some shop finding a few frames with VINs back a few years ago.
