And no more value…….. We have had a couple of customers go this route, and in the end, the made the same comment: “Never again!” They all lost money when the tried to sell or trade the vehicles, one even having multiple dealers tell them that they would not even consider taking the car as a trade, and ended up spending months and a lot of $ before they actually sold the car, and then at a signifanct loss to someone that eventually ended up filing a lawsuit against them. “Frankencars” are not for everyone, and in couple of cases, anyone.

Interesting. I had not considered that perspective. I purchased my car for $9500 as a bank repo. I sold the engine and exhaust parts for about what I paid for the LS and to make a long story short I do not have that much in the car. That Corvette and that Charger I snunk up on the other day almost makes me even.
