Always thought some of these asking prices were unrealistic until I started doing a restoration on my ‘74 Lime Green Targa. Being a special paint color and procedure it came in at $45K. Having Al K upgrade my 2.7 to IBT’s and other go fast goodies was another $24K. Tony Garcia did the sport seats for $3600. Suspension upgrades another couple of grand. Restore Fuch rims $2500. Updated audio $1000.00. Lots of other small expenses like weather stripping, new windshield and countless other parts bring it into the range of insanity. Almost like buying the restoration and getting the car for free. Changed my understanding of pricing a car.
