Wow. That car is just...wow. Not exactly a budget build. Best interior I've seen so far. Morrison chasis, '08 shelby running gear. wow.
one needs to visit the wicked fabrication website and check out the build pictures, might have to order a t-shirt even though it has a brand ''C'' truck with the 57.

Just have a hard time getting my arms around the amount of time and money.....just a magnificent piece of art!
Beautiful car, notice how the interviewer keeps pushing the "why not a Chevy?"
The guy with the mike needs a kick in the head.
I love the instrument panel. Incredible build!

It's like the car owner had made the wrong choice for his build. What an a-hole.
How much is in this car?
My guess is $150,000 - 200,000.
Love everything about it. The gauges are jewelry.
Need more of these to bring the value of our up!
Wonder when/if we may see this cross an auction block?
That other red/white Custom that has $150-geezles in it hasn't bid past $80 grand.

Rob, believe you can easily double that price, ten years ago that type of build would have been more than that and this one is so over the top that it wouldn't surprise me if it was closer to half-mil.

That red and white one was a really really nice build, but nothing like this one. I was guessing 300k easy. I'll bet that interior cost him more than I'll have in my entire car when I'm done. The only other one I've seen that is in the same over the top bracket was that brown Fairlane 2 dr hardtop I posted a video of a few months ago....but I think this one out did that.

There are a few stellar Customs, Fairlanes, Wagons that have gotten attention...

I would hope that we will see some great money for these at auction like they deserve when they come up available!
Not that I am ready to sell my budget driver wagon. Just wanna stay in the black!

I do like that he kept the metal painted dash. No change spared on this one, either.
I wish I would have met that guy to get all the OEM parts off it.....
