I wonder how much added value you get for a Pentastar?

The MkII was there because Brad Philips of Hagerty was there.? I suspect 
he's been touring it around the country this year because it's been 
reported at several events.? The other Mk IA belongs to Michael 
Heilpern, a customer of mine, who is the Operations Manager for the FBO 
at the airport.? The FBO is the organization you go to park your private 
jet while you party.? I think I see Starke Shelby standing behind the 
MkII, but I can't be sure.

Thanks for the info. It was no surprise that it took connections to show a
car there.

And yes, I would love to get a good look at the rear of that Mk II.

If Pentastar, deduct $5000.. lousy Chrysler
product.. might have bashed in firewall to
fit 318.

I?d say the average price for removable, decent condition hardtop?s seem to be in the $1,500 $2,000 range regardless of the manufacture of the car. There are two sub $800 Tiger hardtops on Ebay right now (needing attention). One factory, the other not. A while back I was looking at Hardtops for my nephew?s Miata and it seemed that even Mercedes hardtops were within that $1,500 $2,000 range.

>>>If Pentastar, deduct $5000.. lousy Chrysler product.. might have bashed in firewall to fit 318.<<<

As to the Pentastar adding value (as noted above). The engine would have been a 273, not a 318. BUT..., had that been the case a 360 would have dropped right in. No special stroked 347 needed. So, put back the $5,000 and likely add more! And, had they had today?s engines crank triggered ignition it would have eliminated the distributor problem. But more a dream than a reality because the Chrysler LA engine is very wide and left/right fitment is as much an issue as front/back.
