re: #407 Dr Lizardo

It’s a cool-looking car, no doubt about it, but yeah they’re total rustbuckets. Which is a shame really; I’d love to own one.

I’ve always wondered how much one of those professional ‘Frame Off’ restorations cost. There’s a show on Velocity that does nothing but old Chrysler Corp. muscle cars, even from rusty hulks, restoring them to factory spec - or what factory spec would have been if everyone in the factory had been obsessed with doing the best possible job (hint - they weren’t).

I learned the average high-quality ‘Frame Off’ resto runs about $50,000.
