I dunno, I sort of feel bad busting on the guy.
I mean, its not my thing, he mispelled "Rotary" he's either fibbing about what he's put into it, or he's sunk a bunch of money into mediocre work . . .
I just sort of feel sorry for him.

Yea, I hear you...The only thing I just can't get past is that someone might buy it not knowing the amount of cost the repairs will be to correct the bad spelling.
Not to mention the unfinished interior :)

The Rotory
Well it isn't a restoration, but it is a custom job and has several features that I personnaly like.
The "unfinished" interior is a nice trick for someone with no headliner, or semi destroyed interior parts and looks quite a bit like the B1600 or early Courier insides.
I like the stripe treatment as well, kinda understated. The nonstock green is nice looking also.
I like restorations myself, but I can appreciate those who want something different.
Price is mostly what other folks are willing to pay and it appears this one is somewhat overpriced.

Not to slam the guy 'too much'...
...I will say this: I, too, can find *aspects* of this kustom that appeal... that said, I'd call it a "75 percent completed, full-custom REPU"... Not all too bad for whoever wants that particular interpretation... *IF* the price is right!
(I still think $4 to $5 K would be better spent on another, though...)
