Priced out of what? Finding a car in that condition is hard work to get back and it was not for a quick flip.

Prices are out of whack because people pay. And people now pay a lot because they want to and can.

This is this. In this life there are poseurs who have no cred and there are people like Adam who has decided, at the last time I checked, to make a living at this and it's a very difficult living with many, many unknowns and pitfalls, not to mention dealing with people all the time who come from all different backgrounds.

My advice to you is to go pick on something like big pharmaceutical companies, oil companies, or other people who tend to control and put prices out of 'whack' as you say. While you're at it, please tell them that it's shameful that I had to spend $637 on my wifes epipen (two).

Looking at this thread, and Adams response, I'm surprised he even dignified it with comment. I just see a dude who buys stuff and sells it, and has the passion to boot.

Nice story Adam! And thank you for helping me find the spare wheel with the right date code in your stash for my restoration!

Porsche published the story on my 1973.5 and bringing it back!

Ha ha - oh man, that hilarious! :D

Woody wasn't wrong about the "self promotion" bit, however; ol' Adam will even post the same pics over and over, in an attempt to garner some biznizz! :)

#LOL It's not just here, also on a ESR. Presumably building up to offloading the Jordanian royalty car.

Strapping myself in and ready for some heartfelt advertorial posts about how upsetting it is for a real enthusiast (read business) who 'saves them all'.

Yeah, typical, Nick only wants to hear from me when I'm giving him advice on selling his car. Who knew you could have fair weather friends in your own backyard. Disappointing, but not surprising.
