I would like to know why it is up for sale since it is so close to being finished. I have heard rumors about build cost approaching 750k........ :wow: and it's not even painted and put back together?????

[off-topic]Scott, are you still planning to do a trip down there this winter?[/off-topic]

[syborg tt]

It could truely be a Riddler car once it's finished.

You never know why people sell there car's before they are finished. I see it all the time. I just wish i had the money to buy a couple cars from the past.

That was the cars original intended purpose wasn't it? I am suprised troy isn't buying it from the guy to finish and go for a riddler!

[syborg tt]

He has another car in the shop that they are building for the Riddler and it's just as amazing.

How many cars do they work on at the same time? i know they have about 10 guys working there but still what a conductor one would have to be to design, order parts, and all the other stuff that needs to happen, i know what it is like around here and we are only bulding 3 right now. my hat is off to Rad Rides the stuff that comes out of that shop is truly an inspiration to every thing we do.

You know, the villain from Batman? The Riddler. "Riddle me this". J/K

At the Detroit Autorama, I believe, they have an award for the car that is judged the best. It has to make its debut at the Detroit show. The award is named the Ridler. I am vague on the history behind the Ridler award.

[907rs]

It's in memory of the late Don Ridler, an early promoter of the show.

I have wondered this also......I think we need to talk to marty(syborg) and see what he says?

we have a 3 guy crew, and have 7or 8 cars in the shop all the time.....which IMO is way too many for us but someone(kennyd) can't say no!

[Tim Baillie]

I have 2 other guys and we are always running several projects at once. Right now we have 4 and I find myself ordering and following up on parts all the time..................this 4-6 weeks for parts is a killer.............I need better wholesalers on air ride and stuff.

So, pro-builders, how much would this car cost to finish? Ballpark figure.

[J2SpeedandCustom]

how much would this car cost to finish? Ballpark figure.

I would guess another $150 - 250K. The level that car is being built at you want to finish it the right way...

[TravisB]

200-250K......easy!
