1973 Mustang Grande 351C 2V, built on the very last production day (July 6, 1973) for Grande's.
Anybody seen “Flipping bangers” on tv yet? Was on Discovery here last wednesday. Two dudes buying a car that is slightly better than a parts car and then try to double its value in 5 days.

In episode 1 they buy a Porsche 924 (I personally like those). They replaced a dash with 10 cracks witha second hand with 3 cracks. The brown carpet had turned green by the sun and they dyed it brown again, totally diiferent brown though. Part of a seat needed to be reupholstered which one of them did but the leather wasn’t fitting very well. Last but not least they painted the car after only sanding it for a day or so and against the paint manufacturers advice put a metallic coat on it. The day after the paint already had stains in it, I saw blisters and spots that had not been sanded well.

I’m not saying I can do all those things (yet) but they were doing it professionally...

Waste of their time and effort I think and a waste of a 924 that could’ve (and should have) been restored to a higher standard.

Wow I really needed spill this. Thanks for reading ;-)

 
Anything to make a buck and get on tv. Wonder how many other are dong this on a daily bases and are selling to people that have no idea what they are really getting for their money.
