Reality TV...

That $400K price is way over stated. They paid significantly less for the F40. The shop owner (seller) wanted $200K before the Fast and Loud guys showed up. The highest offer at the time was only $80K. EVERYTHING on that car was destroyed. The producer of the show bought it. Before they showed up, I sent 20 DVD with detailed photo's to everyone who showed interest in buying it and $80K was the highest offer that came in. BTW the owner of the car who was in Europe at the time it was wrecked, watched the show last night....

Looks like Reggie Jackson couldn't handle the power. Sold it at Barrett Jackson for $585,000. Well, plus 10% so more like the buyer paid $643,500 after fees.

Any takers on what it will fetch? Someone on here posted pics of it and the paint looked like shit.

That was me

That thing is shit. Gas Monkey took it to another shop to get some work done because they couldn't get the car to align right. The other shop had to cut and weld in several places on the frame to get it correct.

When I saw it at Plano C&C last year I was not impressed.

One of the guys from the other shop is my son's friend's dad who has a shop/company with Bob Norwood. He told me about that car before the show aired, laughed but would not give me any info....
By the tone and smirks I am guessing that it was because how bad it was hacked..

I'm going to throw in some hatred for David Coker too....someone needs to hit that cock sucker in the head with a tire iron.....at least a couple times.

[War Machine]

I have known three of the guys on the show for over 8 years and they've been fired from multiple shops. I wouldn't let them build shit for me

[Rick Modena]

Sounds like a shop full of fucking hacks...
