ya i know what ya mean but the sad thing about that site is most of the cars aren't for sale because the owners think they are gonna fix them up someday even though they will never get around to it.

That truly is a sick site to look at. I went and looked at all the mop-ars in barns and all i could do was lay in the floor in my office and cry. OH THE HUMANITY.

It's made by Triumph, and the model is TR6. I'm betting it looks like this:

That is a pretty small price to pay considering that I have seen those cars restored go for 70,000 on Ebay. Tiss a sad site to see really. Makes me want to stop working on my J and get working on my mopar.

Tragedy!



If it's not network news, it's probably the truth getting out.

Some people are like slinkies: Not really good for anything,
but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them
down a flight of stairs.

Those are the people who should have to walk everywhere. How can you just let a car sit there for a long time and say you'll fix it up eventually? I would kill somebody if they had a 'vette in a barn for 30 years. Heck, there's a guy in my hometown who had a Stingray 'vert that he wouldn't sell for anything and last I saw his dog was sleeping on the top of it...

try $300,000 for one in decent shape. If you go to any major car auction the asking price is atleast that. Now maybe an old one that needed restoring could be $70,000 which is a crap load of money.

i took these pictures over the thanksgiving weekend with my camera phone. this is a 1964.5 mustang and a 1967 Mustang California Special. he also has sitting around another i think 1965 or 66 mustang and lastly a 1965 GT convertible, i have pictures but theyre not on my computer yet. these things have been sitting there forever. my grandfather wont do anything with them. im just waiting till i inherit one of them. it really aggravates me that he has these cars just wasting away.

Reminds me of the 67 GTO convertable I drive by every day. It's it need of a resto but gets worse every day. Pretty sad. I stoped to talk to the guy and he says someday it will go on ebay cuz he wants a lot more then anyone around here is willing to pay for it. Bastard.

300,000that is fricking crazy. The craziest part is that the car brand new only cost like what 6,000 maybe less. That is just nucking futs man.

i've seen ones on ebay that look like they're from the above website for $70,000. $300K is not that far-fetched. here's some more info as to why they're so expensive:
