"Soon to be worth big bucks."

I guess that's why they're hot to unload it at this time. What a sales pitch..

Ya gotta figure a '69 VW Bug had to be worth something as is. Now it looks like 2 other cars got piled on top of it. How do you undo or even unsee that mess?

Could be he is trying to recoup the cost of the engine rebuild, plus whatever else he put into it.

That's only $26 grand in real money. Are there two tariffs on Canadian Porsches? Foreign steel and foreign cars?

And that poor 69 VW is just plain hideous.
