[Tigers] How much to spend on a conversion

[chris cthompson.net]

It’s current price is $265,000.  Still absurd.  A reason this dealer calls himself Fantasy Junction?

Sounds like a case of elder abuse, somebody
ripped off somebody.

OK, I had to share this absurdity. How much would you spend to take a 4 cylinder English roadster and stuff a V8 into it? I would imagine doing it to an Alpine and spending a bunch of money to make it like a Tiger might make some sense. But what about a 4 seater Austin Healey that never came with a V8 option? How about $850,000??? Yes, you read that right. They even have the list of invoices paid. At some point don't you say "wait, stop, dear god, how much is this going to cost me?" And then after ALL THAT MONEY wouldn't you think he would have had a reason to do such as driving it more than 300 miles before putting it for sale?
