On a controversial episode of the reality show Fast N’ Loud, the Gas Monkey Garage crew bought a famously written-off Ferrari F40 that they planned to rebuild. But building it back to spec wouldn’t be enough, the crew wanted to make the F40 better than the original.

Using Ferrari certified technicians, the car was put back together piece by piece while receiving minor upgrades here and there. Will the car bring in at least the $900,000 Richard Rawlings claimed he was offered on his show? We will all have to wait to find out.

Any takers on what it will fetch? Someone on here posted pics of it and the paint looked like shit. That and the fact it has a salvaged title, I'm gonna guess $450k.

I am surprised it has stayed together long enough to get to this point.

I am going to step in and say somewhere in the "reserve not met" figure.

I still cannot believe they painted it back. "It's probably the only black one there is." Yeah Richard, it's definitely the only fucked up one, that tells you something..

so what's the scoop with them? I see all the time where they're talked about, in a bad way, on here but I guess I don't know the back story.

I'm surprised some rag head hasn't wrapped one in suede.

I don't care if it's black, and a white one would look pimp too. Somebody will step up & buy it, even if it's just a straw man. Too much build up for it to fizzle.

I usually like most aspects of the show though, so count me in the minority I guess.

It's just Orange County Choppers with cars & Texans, instead of motorcycles and yankees.
