Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Break in the weather

[Doug and Terri Anderson (dnt]

The $63k price was my tongue in cheek amount it would cost to bring the car 
back to nice.  While the car was for sale - a ridiculously low amount I 
recall - it could turn out to be a money pit if one had to hire out all the 
restoration and do none of the work themselves.  My guess.

Do agree with Mike - when we were about 95% done with the future national 
winning Porsche 912 concours project I had many people ask me if it were for 
sale - of course I would reply and put a price on it twice what it was 
worth.  See - - - - it IS for sale, you just don't want to pay my price. 
heh heh

Alain Prosts F1 car eh?  I have his Mclaren TAG (Porsche) Turbo engine from 
1984 - - often asked if it is for sale?  Ayep, and I quote the price of a 
house.  BUWHAAAhahahahaahhaha
