I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

It's listed as a "1949 Ford Other" LoL

Sad part is, looks like there was a ton of work and money spent on that project, only to end up hideous. 55 Grand? C'mon. Not even if the wood was left over from Jesus' carpentry career.

If you could replace everything ahead of the windshield it'd have potential. I love two-door wagons though...

That aint this........ George has been smoking some good chit in his old age.  No comparison to the inventiveness of the old days of his prime.

^that.

THAT is what I envision when I hear the name "George Barris".


As far as smoking some good shiznit...it'd have to some REAL good shiznit before I could see any beauty in that thing. And I've never been a smoker...well, except when I fire up the grille, and once, when I murdered a pair of extremely dry rotted Michelins.
