I remember that Vanilla Ice (the rapper) spent $500K with Gambella.
Blake-- It melted.

Where did that $600,000 go? Did they strip off every bolt and replace them?

Ouchow....

This is why Dupont Registry is THE bible for investor cars....

This thing looks like a grouper that was sexually violated by a Fiero-Testarosa kit car!

BTW... VI is doing a home restoration show on like HGTV2 or something...

"Today, we turn this post-war tract house into a reproduction of Looey Quarterhorse's Versiasse Palace..."

Kinda like the countach on wolf of wall street...

I remember going to a PCA picnic when I was in college back in 1991. There was a guy there who had taken a long hood and updated it to a 930 look, complete with 3.3 Turbo engine. Back then, I thought it was cool, now not so much. My how things change.
