And as someone who has dabbled in buying, refurbishing and selling vehicles (at a much lower level than this), I can't help but wonder why a dealer would buy an unfinished project, and then sink so much cash into it when the purpose is resale? That could have been a very nice, fun car even if the investment was cut in half. No need to put that much in it unless you wanted it for yourself. When sinking money into a car for resale, there is a point of diminishing returns. The BaT car was WAY past that point.
