[QUOTE=Dudley;831988]My son's roadster is the 69 2000 and he picked it up from a metal scrap yard 12 years ago. He stripped it to the frame and did almost all the work himself except for the carb rebuild. He learned tig welding, metal machining, powder coating,
painting and everything in between. He got it back on the road a few months back and he credits it to saving his sanity as he has been working at home since march 2020. He is a software engineer at Apple. He has to get a different muffler as you will hear him coming. What is it worth? he values it at about $5000 , total cost WAY too much but as sanity check, priceless! I would love to see what he would do to a
fiberglass trailer! I taught him well![/QUOTE

Glad to hear your son is developing skills we learned as youngsters and thought that all or most boys would develop these skills. But few do today.
And $5000 K! Every nice 2000 I have seen in the last hand-full of years went for nearly 10 times that amount.
I campaigned a 73 124 Abarth and owned it for 40 years. Bought it for $3.8 K and
sold it for more than 10 times that amount. Today it would be nearly 20 times that amount.
Kudos to your son. Now to find a good race driving school to learn how to drive it at it's limits.
