VideoTapir posted:Invested is the best word on Craigslist. I had no idea that such old vehicles could command such a premium http://www.jeepbrokers.com/JeepBrokers_CJ8.htm There's a stock '82 on there for $15k...are you kidding me? One even says "Less than 28,000" of these long wheelbase jeeps were built. That seems like a lot to be considered "rare"... Also, he claims it has "the longest wheel base of any Jeep on the market"...even though the new 4 door jeeps are 13" longer... UserNotFound fucked around with this message at 21:20 on Oct 1, 2009 |

UserNotFound posted:I had no idea that such old vehicles could command such a premium If it's an older jeep that's in good shape with no rust, I can probably see that. But remember, ask high and settle for what you really want. Scramblers fall into that category, many folk I know in the wheeling community want a Wranger/Jeep pickup. This is it, unless they want to go with the Brute/AEV route with a newer jeep and that costs a fair bit [5 figures]. Unmolested Scramblers are rare, and I can see them going for more than that if they have upgraded axles, lockers, 37" tires, etc. Now if it was a rusted out poo poo box, then yeah, it's gold but otherwise I don't see anything outlandish about it.

While I'm sure they guy really does have more than that in it (to be in that condition), it's just an F100. There are many more, and I'm not sure what the market is for people wanting a common, old rear end truck in pristine shape.

I could definitely picture Hank Hill buying it.  And what ^^^^ said is very true, it is worth what someone is willing to pay. Perhaps there is a Hank Hill in the area, who knows?

Do you really think they had only one car? Come on. Besides, I wasn't implying it was used in the series, rather it was made by the same guy that made the show cars (yes plural), so esentially it's a Miami Vice original model.

^^ Yeah, I know. But then again who knows....that car never saw much crazy action that I remember. It was just cruising around most of the time. How did they stay undercover so long? "Hey, it's that white dude and black dude who have that only Ferrari Daytona in all of Miami and are always around when my bros get arrested!" Content: http://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/cto/1401760241.html  Click here for the full 907x722 image. "All stock" except for some "gay-rear end" tail lights and some "salvage titled". But yeah otherwise it's totally like from the factory, dude! Trade for a bagged SUV.

Bagged is when air bags are used to raise and lower the car on command, correct? Gay-rear end tail lights is definitely a first for me, at least coming from the sellers end.

leica posted:so I don't see how you could possibly be a "poser". People in Cobra replicas aren't looked at as posers, because no one can afford a real Cobra. Same goes for a Daytona Spyder. If the badges on your car don't belong there, you are a poser. Simple as that. I don't know that cobras (AC's) get a free pass either. I think they can make a better case since the Shelby cobra was, in some ways, a kit car to begin with. Anyone that slaps a GT350 logo on their 289 deserves a swift kick though. Not saying it wouldn't fun. Just scrape the badges off first.

Tai-Pan posted:If the badges on your car don't belong there, you are a poser. Simple as that. Oh I agree with you there, if I actually owned the Daytona replica, I would never pass it off as a real Daytona. It's just that I think the Daytona has the best lines of any car, and even a replica would be the ultimate to me because it's just so drat sexy. And I don't think most Cobra replica owners pull the poser bullshit either, it's just a timeless sports car that people love that's relatively easy to replicate.

The only one I've seen locally is not that nice one, it's rusty in that oh poo poo it's coming apart at the seams kind of rusty. But a nice one? You'd be wrong to not want to drop the top and blast around in your Kübelwägen.

Fun fact: the water pump and climate control servo for this car costs more than $2,000 each from Mercedes (rebuilds from other people cost less) You don't want to know what an entirely new suspension costs on those, but at least MB does a good job at keeping parts for their classics available. Great cars though!
