Man that is clean! Why not keep the 66' and just buy the GT 500 out right?

No. You should totally keep that.

That is, you should unless you are completely tired of having to deal with that beautiful thing. I myself can't see that happening, especially after allowing Muskrat to escape my clutches. I regret that decision every single day. Having Awesome helps, and so does Ride, but I really, REALLY want my '66 back. She was MY '66, and unique in all the world... and I let her go.



So I vote 'no'. If would swing the Boss, or some other car, without having this car get away from me, if I were you.

That is one absolute beauty! If i were you id keep it and wait maybe 10 more years and just watch how much its worth(:
It will sell for MUCH more than the 16,500 ur askin.
Plus i would just restore it to original show quality condition, take it to shows, win awards and money and over the years save the winnings up. Then auction the carr of at barrett jackson for 100k+(:

? Well I would guess the 66 is just maintenance perhaps ? And even if you sold, traded the 66 you would still have a car payment on the GT500.

So...I'm confused ? Insurance perhaps ?
