It was a very cool experience to be involved (even if it was just as an observer) in the first public look of a car that is sure to be a valuable collectible a few years down the road!
The color is really nice. My camera really doesn't do it justice.
And it's too funny that you mentioned the emo kid Richard...he is a friend of mine and even though is isn't emo at all, he really does look like it in that picture  I have to show him that! |
I'd say it is a collectible now. Limited edition, only one of it's kind (so far), hand-signed parts.....yeah, it's already a collectible.
That being said, I had difficulty keeping my breakfast down after seeing it. I'll give it a +1 for the color and that is pushing my boundaries of decent colors. The stripes really took it down a notch but then the '43' on the rear bumper sank the ship. I've never been a big fan of the autographs painted on a vehicle, I feel it just looks tacky and very redneck-ish. You don't see Foose, Saleen or Shelby plastering their actual signatures on their cars. A nice dash plaque with build # and an autograph is enough.
Congrats on the photo op though. Except at a show, you'll probably never see this car on the road.
