I'll find the build thread and post it here. It is a very nice Z. Let's hope he gets his price.

Not my style but a very nice job on this one.

Its a nice looking car but too rich for my blood! Good luck to them.

The seller can't get the asking price in this economy , or any other.

To spend that kind of money on an average high production car is done

everywhere - there's a guy I know that spent over $100,000 on a '67

Dodge 4 door . Totally stock , every nut + bolt. Why ? I dunno - you

can't morally justify it , I don't care what kind of excuse you come up

with . Value of money is different to everybody - the next guy needs

$100,000 to pay for his sick kid's medical bills .

Anyhoo good luck seller , nice car .

I love the color. But I don't have that kind of money to spend on a car.

Ah-mazing car, but $50K? Hope he gets it, but I think it's unlikely...

This is a fantastic car, I followed the build for the last bit. BTW, that's the reserve he has asked $125k for it.

Edit: Decided it's not really my place to call the asking price silly or not. If someone wants it, they will buy it, and I wish him the best of luck!

changed my mind.

As the old saying goes "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" and that goes for cars more than anything. If someone wants that Z then they'll happily pay even the most ridiculous amount for it. Its a rather nice car though, if I had the cash and was lacking a Z I would more than likely make a bid on it.

Jared is very optomistic. For $50k or $125k there are many other directions I would take besides a 'HybridZ' however nicely done.................

Personally, I liked the car better "before"

When I was starting to restore my car years ago, the body guy asked me, "Do you want A z car or THIS z car?" I will have spent more money on my car than it is worth but I wanted THIS z car. The only problem comes if and when people try to sell the car. It will be interesting to see how much it will go for. I agree with Jan, people will always spend more money than things are worth (me included ).
