[Shotimes] Topic change - was leather seats - now car value

[Ian Fisher]

I agree
that's why I'll probably get more money parting it out
then selling it outright. (which I don't have the
heart to do)

I'll have more money in my 3.2 when it's done than the
entire car is worth. Ha, my Quaife is probably worth
more than the car itself! If I had to replace it, I'd
be spending a lot more on a higher dollar car that I
couldn't afford to wrap around a telephone poll. I
hate to say it but if I crash the SHO tomorrow, I can
always pick up another one fairly cheaply and transfer
my parts over. (although I can't fathom wanting to buy
another SHO) lol
