    FS: @Pelican - Hot Rod E - far from stock

    Not mine, no affiliation, but wonder how fast this one must be. With some toning down, could be a real sleeper. Seller asking $95k.

    That's a bit harsh ! It needs a little spicing up of the body details (Magnusification ? Singerfied ?) but looks like it would be a blast to drive.

    It's already been Magnusified ... that rear center panel with louvers on louvers on louvers...no thank you.

    And that dash situation is not pretty with those huge Ford vents and chewed up knee bar.

    And the trunk...wow.

    All of this and more can be yours for the low low price of $95K!!

    The parts list isn't half bad, but the execution deserves execution.

    Again...just one man's opinion.

    There were two on PP that I saw. This ones a bit more subdued, but doesnt have much in the engine bay. It appears as though several folks are building and selling "early hot rods"

    It seems like the "driving experience" of these cars is becoming harder to come by for folks of less than stellar financials -- by picking up one of these "hot rods" they can get the driving experience with less concern of decreasing values. That's what I did two years ago when I bought my RSR recreation. Because there are no "rules" on the restorations, the builders can amplify the experience (and make it safer) as well.
