So much potential. Jeff and Dan, this is the car I was talking about at the show tonight.
Stupid hotdog...
naa, settled in just fine. It was just a rediculous thing.
If it is not a popular car -- it could be in the $8,000 to $15,000 range. Takes a lot of coin to restore a car these days, especially if it is something that old.
I wouldn't say 6 figures, Rich.
Once I googled '38 pontiac silver streak', there's actually more of them out there than one would probably think. Once I got a good look at some that were hot rodded or restored, I realized what it was, and ugly, huge old car. Almost all of them get painted two-tone, one color body, one color fenders/running boards. Not exactly a street-rod by any means, and never a performance car. It does have its place, and that's as a piece of fine iron American history. IMO, get it running, make it comfy, get those horrible wheels/tires off of it, and drive it as-is, or go through great-expense with no chance at profit and make it museum-quality, but even then, that's about the end of it.
Ah.
I've been thinking about looking around for a '30s Willys coupe to have some fun with.......or possibly another T-bucket......hmmm....
I went to a show one summer and saw a T-bucket with a blown 454 in it. We all looked at it and thought the owner was nuts. One night he blew past the show and the right front wheel kept lifting off the ground with every shift. No cage or any saftey equipment for that matter. Just meaty ET Streets on the rear and skinnies up front on a tubular frame. Loud as all shit and primer gray. Insane car.
