nice factory 100 M project on ebay....

And someone, with a nice feedback number bought it for $20,100. Gents, I think this is the future. For some period of time the value of our cars are going to continue to climb. That car had 3 legitimate (buyers with good to excellent feed back) vieing for it at the end. Personally, I thought it was "too much" at 8, but the market says I'm the fool.

Don't be so sure. Time will tell. I suspect someone will have another $40,000 or more in that car and not the correct engine and half a dozen other incorrect items.
 
$20,000 is to much to pay, but well done Marv. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif

It also raises the question of originality.

It is a factory 100M but it doesnt have the most important factory M bits,... the engine & carbs...so what will that make it when its fully restored..its not a matching numbers car. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif
 
It's like my great, great, great grandpappy's axe. He had it in the war of 1812: the handle had to be replaced in the Civil War and the head had to be replaced in WW I. It's still my great, great, great grandpappy's axe.

Welcome to the forum, Marv. I, like you 'lurk' most of the time but...

/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/iagree.gif "Girls can have Healeys too." This is my factory certified M and I wouldn't part with her for anything. She was buried up to her axle in mud in a junkyard in Miami but she cleaned up rather nicely.

No, I won't get into how much dollars she cost... (lol)
