Some company is making a limited number of 1950 styled Thrift Masters. Much more modern equipped. We should be happy to have something that others want to copy. Starting around the 1 minute mark of main video. http://video.foxnews.com/v/2816611954001/return-of-the-chevy-thriftmaster/?playlist_id=931078420001
Pretty neat, thanks for sharing. But I couldn't bring myself to part with $230K to buy one, even if I had it to spend. Damon
Very cool, but I can build that for less than half that. Basically, that is what I'm doing with the 41 f**d right now......Roadster shop chassis, 2013 mustng engine and trans, stock appearing body.
$230,000 each They only made 5 this year..... & they only sold 2. Maybe there will be a price drop to liquidate this years models before they make 5 more next year.
What's "Thrift" about a $230,000 Thriftmaster I have to ask why? Must be some oil sheiks in Saudi Arabia that like our old trucks. Hard to believe the manufacturer could actually have $230,000 in this truck? Go figure... If I had $230 grand for toys.... I'd finish my '65 C10 orange crate, and buy a mid year vette coupe, and buy a GT-40 and have gas & insurance money for all the above It does look pretty good though. Maybe you get 5 of them for $230 grand?
Lets see.... $20k roadster shop full chassis $15K body/ sheetmetal $4K wheels/ tires $6k full leather interior $15K crate LS/trans $2K wiring harness/ labor $10K paintjob $5K various parts $20K labor Still under $100K with high estimates. Put prestigious name on it: $130K $230K total price!
