    The best five minutes car viewing of my life (and I aint seventeen)
    Have wanted one since watching The Gumball Rally.
    Loved the soundtrack then, the curves then and how it made me feel.
    Unfortunately, a nasty spill, at a short circuit put a stop to buying one ( You cant have a 427 with auto and hand controls eh ??? )
    So Thank You Sir from the UK and may You and all those close by, enjoy Her for many, many special moments.

    Your video was one that kept me coming back for that Backdraft/Cobra fix for a couple years. I'm coming up on one year of ownership with mine and couldn't be happier. Hoping to do a similar video with mine here in the future. Have to keep those dreamers drooling until the day comes they can get one of their own!

      @Vel87x - BDR quotes "Starting at $46,900." If only drivetrain is left and not a laundry list of upgrades, is it possible to complete at or under $60k with, say, a 351W?

    • @vel87x
      @vel87x 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@davidhardin6649 I would say you'd be close. Figure ~$4000-4500 for a tremec & decent clutch. That leaves you with ~$9000 for an engine. It all depends on how wild you want to go. A turn-key from Prestige is $11-12k.

      No, not everything is for sale at the right price. When you wish for a dream car at the age of 10 and spend the next 55 years of your life trying to acquire it, you are not going to sell it. Not for a million, or a hundred million. The gentlemen in this car are clearly in their 60's, they might be able to enjoy the car for another 15 or 20 years. Dreams are priceless for a reason, and those who obtain their dreams will part with them for nothing short of God Himself. Those who love money can never understand this. It is not for sale. Bill Gates could not buy this car off of them.
