At 37K I am sure he will have to fight off the buyers.

You can tell a redneck made it by the carpet/tweed upholstery.

Prostreet 107

This car was sold at Barrett Jackson in West Palm Beach last year for $24,000. I looked it over and the paint job it had then was like a rainbow, and just plain ugly. The running gear looked right but the fit and finish was very rough. All the gold trim was tacky and tarnished and I was very suprised that it sold for $24,000. The running gear looked professionally done but the rest fell far short. The 450 is too heavy for a drag car and the way this one was set up, it would make a very uncomfortable street car.

a few years back there was a 107 that was in the advertising for the auburn fall auction with a sixties chrysler 426 hemi engine in it. it was well done and didn't look to obvious like this one does. i was very interested in seeing what it went for but it did not go across the block. i guess it was sold prior.

i think it was poppy orange.

as someone said..."what were they thinking?"

now roncallo's 107 mb v12 is another matter indeed.

that is interesting.
