    Would love to see a car of this quality come through a reputable auction house. I suspect it could set a very, very high bar !!!

    This is quite a car!!!

    Btw, please correct me if I am wrong but I don't think there has been a boxer that has transacted that has been restored to a Newman work product level?

    Paul, as always, very nice work.

    I know, I know I haven't commented on your project (s) for a while, but I have been keeping up on them.
    I didn't want all the praising I give you to get to your shiny head. :)

    That engine is almost too beautiful to put back in the car!

    I could put that in my den, and just stare at it all day.

    They make a great coffee table! I have a 512M engine in my office and I still find myself staring at it!

    Very cool engines, sadly never to be produced again.

    Forgive me.........Beautiful work.............
    I can't hold back, sorry................
    Perfect example.....race, wrecked, repaired.........old, repaired, restored.........no paint work, original paint.....WHO CARES..........done right as this perfect example, who cares.
    It gets so old hearing " original paint, CLEAN CARFAX" I call bull&^%$$.
    So do you think, anyone, that this restoration will show up on a carfax? get my point?
    Your car is stunning period. Good for you.
    All cars that are old need to have this some time in there life, the wanna be's that think it's more valuable because of "no issues, original paint, bla bla bla" are just smoking crack IMO.
    Your car is worth more many times over than before you started.
    Well done !!!!!!!!!
