I saw the ad, maybe on Racing Junk? it is quite the car. Some people commission projects only to realize they are way over their heads and just push them way to the back of the garage. I built a turbo Mustang for a guy 15years ago, drag race with huge turbo, state the art, over 1400hp, beautiful piece that I was very proud of and knew it'd get me lots more work. It needed the transmission built, I had a Dedenbear case for construction and it needed building. When I fired it up the first time the owner felt the throttle and overwhelmed him, the car left my shop to go to his garage and has yet to see the light of day. This SL might be the same thing, not money just a heavy dose of reality.
