If the car is the price of a house, it better be letter-perfect!!!

I was watching an auction on TV today and they were selling a bunch of premium cars fot premium prices. A few of them really pissed me off. I mean if your asking six figures for a supposedly original car-then it should damn well be original, right?  Well these weren't!! # 1. This was a 1964 Impala SS convertible that they were trying to sell ( and did ) for $150,000. This was way to much in my mind for two reasons-One it WAS NOT a 409 / 4-speed, it was 327 / Powerglide. Secondly-the engine may or may not have been a '64 vintage 327-but  the Radial A/C compresser and the HEI distributor stood out like a sore thumb!! Like Ditka says-"Come on,Man!!" You couldn't go to Autozone and get a Reman A6 compresser and point-type distributor so it at least LOOKED "Period Correct?"  # 2. This was a 1969 Shelby GT350 Mustang. It was reasonably priced at $55,000-you can't usually touch any Shelby for under 100k-but the price was right-with the 290 hp 351W-except for the 250 hp '68 model these are lowest powered Shelby ( The 289-powered '65-67 models were rated at 306, and the 428 engined GT500s were grossly under-rated at 335-) and it was an automatic, not a 4-speed, and it had an Edelbrock carb on it, and American Racing Torq-Thrust wheels. Granted, the Autolite 4300 is the WORST carb ever built and if I wanted to drive the car at all-I'd probably put an Edelbrock or a Holley on it myself-but the original carb should have been included and it should have had the original wheels. I say this because I've seen completely original GT350s in Hemmings for $44,000-ten grand less. # 3 This one made me want to kick out the TV screen-a 1963 Split-Window Corvette that some moron had-wait for it-Put an LS motor and a six-speed in!!! And they wanted a 100K for the butchered thing. If was an original '63 Split-window with the Fuel-Injected 327 or even the carburated 340 hp version it would have been worth 100K, but not with a non-original powertrain??!! What was this guy thinking? You couldn't find a '68-82 C3 that no one cares about and cut that up, it's got to be a rare one-year only model!!  Ugh!  Anyhow-the point I'm making is if the car costs six figures-it ought to be "Right".
