Of course a couple of Kaiser Manhattans are in the driveway.

I didn’t notice that before, but the closer one even looks like a Jade Dragon. Rare car.

With the top and color, you very well could be right.  Nice catch.

Crack Pipe at $16K.

I wouldn’t pay more than $5000 for it as-is.

And not just because it needs work, but also because a lot of the detail work is quite unimpressive. The side marker lights, front turn signals and grill mesh look like cheaply done crap.

And the fit of panels like the fuel door and trunk lid have really poor fit.

On the picture of the engine bay, there appears to be wood going up each side.  Why?

Looks like rotting plywood, I think you can see some on the underside of the hood as well. I assume he used it as a substrate for some fiberglass work to fill in the parts he didn’t have sheet metal for.

It’s an interesting design with potential but was poorly executed. There is a lot of crack pipe on Hemmings
