1965 Toyota stout 2jz

What was the minimum set at

 

Bid to $9,900 only? I'll be damn!

 

It was above that, I guess nobody knows the rareness of the stout. All good just means I gotta go turbo and keep it.

 

I think this is most likely the case, paired with the availability of parts. Had a few dudes on discord with itchy fingers who wanted to pull the trigger, but were a little spooked at having to potentially fab anything that needed parts.

 

That makes sense. Everything was literally custom fabricated to make it all work! Lots of work and money went into it. It’s alright maybe I’ll just give it to my dad.

 

It’s beautiful work dude! You should absolutely be proud of this build, it’s really cool. Since it’s so customized, it almost needs to go a step further, a buddy commented that if you wide body this, it would probably double the bid price just because of the attention Ryan Tuerck’s is getting. It’s right at the point of its custom, but doesn’t look like it to people who don’t know, and needs to get pushed slightly farther.

The price kinda reflects all that, people aren’t looking for a project, and if it was all original, it woulda been bidded higher. Theres a sweet spot in there somewhere.

All that being said, it’s rad as hell, and I’d drive the shit out of it hahaha.

 

Man I really appreciate this analysis! Truly you know what you’re talking about and I agree with you 1000%!
I’m kinda glad it didn’t sell lol

 

Hang on to it for a beat, have some fun with it, take it to some shows (cars and coffee in Griffith park tomorrow for example) I’m sure you’ll get a ton of interest in it, and probably have enough fun to rekindle that love for it.
