Ugly, but not the ugliest ever. I think that goes to Mark Hamill's "Corvette Summer" specimen. I've never seen anything nominated that rivals that fugly Corvette from Hamill's movie:
He dropped the Buy It Now price to $15,750 but bidding topped out at $12,501. So close.
<edit>Based on the ad, he got lots of estimates for work that could be done to it. If it does have all that, then it is well worth the price. Just peel that bitch clean and rock it for $15k.

When Corvette Summer came out in 1978, that car was pretty sweet. Not everything ages like bourbon or fine wine!

With bidding topping out at 12, I think he got a reality check on what a a wrap (lower customer base) and a few miles will do to your value. 12 would be a decent deal. I could just imagine pulling up at work in that...lol

With $13k in drivetrain work, the mileage is only on the suspension and that is easy to renew (what I am doing now at 140k). Hell, it would be a deal at $16k and with a 6 pack of beer, that car would be black again in no time.
While I think the wrap was cool, it is VERY personal.

I think the opinion this car has a LOT to do with one's age.
Personally, I love it; part of the 40+ club. (Although I act 27 most often.)
This is a 24 Hours of LeMons version of it:
(which actually performed really well)

You may think that, but put thought towards everything that wasn't overhauled, mainly, all the electronics on the car, the rear end and torque tube didn't look to be touched, the notorious for failure early EBCM/ABS setup, etc. It's nice that it's got a new motor and trans, but with that kind of mileage on everything else not addressed, it's a nickel and dime fiasco waiting to happen. Not to mention you've no idea what the paint under the wrap actually looks like. It could be absolutely fried.

I think that's reasonable given the new parts and works. But not 23k, no way no how. The miles kills it.
