the recent allen & troy trade would suggest even a project c500 is worth as much as a finished clone.

when you use "value" as the measuring stick, it's all about the VIN

Agreed. 

Worth is also left to the individuals, that black cloned Daytona is very nice for sure, sitting side by side for the same dollar I would rather have that Y2 500 (likely because the rework of the .... as I real black RTSE from Daytona would cost to much for me).     :yesnod: :Twocents:

yeah , as awesome as that  R/T SE Daytona clone is !!  :yesnod:  would rather have the  XX29 C500 , especially as its an original Y2 car  :drool5:

I prefer the 500 to the Daytona anyway so cloning it certainly wouldn't raise its value in my eyes.

Agreed. If my former Y2 C500 looked like my current black clone, I wouldn't have a "current" clone.. I would have a Y2 C500. Value is in the eye of the beholder. There are different people with different desires and those very same people have desires that even change with age. I personally didn't want to tackle the project to the level I have for me. Ya'll know me, I wouldn't have been satisfied with a "quickie" restoration. It is pretty much all or nothing. Allen's/Larry's former Daytona is a REAL nice car. Is it perfect? no......... It was never meant to be. But, it has one hell of a base to start with and the paint/body are real nice....... Interior is real nice........ Drivetrain has detailing issues, but nothing I can't fix. I am a purist persay and yes, a XX29 car is worth more than a XS or XP car. But, the comparison isn't apple to apple.....

This B5 C500 seems to be an excellent candidate for a restoration, especially for a Southern owner if the a/c is fixed. It could provide year-round enjoyment. I hope someone gets it and makes it look just as good as Allen V's B5 4speed C500..... Now, that's a beaut....  :2thumbs:

I have some spare play money to spend. Where is it, how's the condition & most importantly; how much?

Buy it  :yesnod:

Last time I was way down south it was not at home yet. I believe it is real close to done if not done. He might have been waiting for the spot in the building I cleared out to put it in.  :D  Maybe Allen will hop on and give us a update.  :yesnod:

why list it there, when he could have a buyer here already?

this forum is a damn sight better at pricing an aero car than the dreamer bids on ebay
