I'm confused. Are these all new custom built turn-key cars, or an upgrade for 2nd gen T/A's

Ouch... 130,000? As nice as I'm sure it is, I'll pass.

If I had the money, I'd pay 130k for a really nice Smokey T/A, however the build quality from what I see does not look like $130K. Taking into account that this won't exactly turn into a million dollar car since it's a clone, aaaaaaaaaaaannnndddd nothing. Rip off T/A FTL.

My car may run 18s, but I can do your taxes in 10 seconds flat.
JBO lube - they would never have enough in stock and we'd never see RodimusPrime again

upgraded orginals

they want to much money for them and not many will but for the price since those cars are probbaly worth anywhere from $2000 to maybe $7000 at the moment

These people are completely insane. I could build that exact same car myself (less the bling bling crap) for TOPS 30 grand.... 35 if I used brand new parts instead of good used. I mean, a 1981 Trans Am isn't worth more than 8,000$ in mint condition. Start with that and it won't cost THAT much to start throwing go-fast goodies in it like a 502 Chevy Big Block and a T-56 manual.

Sucker born every minute I guess.

I think ill stick to my original 77 Bandit TA in the garage. $130,000 is rediculouse.

My buddy has a 80 Turbo TA that he may be sending to them. IF they would ever call him back that is

Did nobody notice how much modernizing they've done to it, not only cosmetically, but suspension/performance wise?

Not to mention a frame-off rotisserie restoration?

There's a Buick Skylark at my bodyshop right now having the same type of restoration done and the owner has got around $28k wrapped up into the work they've done thus far, expected to be around 40k when all said and done. Just for the bodyshop to restore it, that's $44/hr labor + materials.

Taking the interest for this car I have myself, and factor in me being rich, I'd pay the $130k for one. Beautiful job they've done, you're basically buying a brand new modernized '77 TA.
