You know busman is building a club joker true syncro 16", with front and
rear locks.  the works.
at his projected price, with shipping and the 4000 fee to make it comply to
us standards it'd
be around 22.  slap on some new paint, a new engine, whatever the heck else
you'd like to
make it pretty and i bet you still wouldn't be at 40k.

still not quite as bad as that one that red one which was 70k.  then again,
that was a full camper ... and i mean, come on, it was red ... who wouldn't
pay 30k for a fresh coat of red paint.

I'm all for what gowesty does.  it just blows me away what people will pay
for things.

Perhaps we should petition the kelly blue book to readjust prices to gowesty
standards.

of course, if that happened I'd probably let my wife drive the syncro for a
few days ... i'm sure she could do enough damage for me to file an insurance
claim.
