Vette(s): Silver 1974 Convertible - L82 4 speed
Low miles (was only 8,900 when I bought it in March 2006) - Now 54K miles. Original owner bought it as an investment for son's college expenses.
2008 Jetstream Blue Convertible
I don't use this phrase often, but
OMG
$1.2 Million? Maybe $1.2 thousand - and that's IF it is a Barris car owned/driven by Farrah. Yikes
I wanted a Corvette my whole life, but I never dreamed of all the wonderful people I would meet because of it!

THAT car, regardless of pedigree, is NOT worth that kinda money...period.
I remember Farrah having a custom Corvette back in the day, but my fading memory has it as being YELLOW, with a saddle tan interior. I don't remember it being dressed up inside like a pimpy Bugs Bunny, either. I seem to remember the car being featured in one of the Corvette rags of the time, too, but it may have been in "Hot Rod", or some other mag.
But really...would Barris take an older Corvette and customize it for Farrah, or would he have used a current day car?
I seriously doubt the ANY TV/Movie star would be driving around in a car with NO A/C...unless it was Paul Newman, or some real, true car nut.
This car may have been owned by someone named Farrah, but I have my doubts as to whether it is the Farrah a lot of ya'll fawned over in the late '70s/early '80s...
Sorry....I never was that big of a Farrah fan.
Who knows? It does appear to have an older IASCA decal on the pass side of the windershield, so it was, at one time, shown in IASCA shows....
I'd have to say that this particular car is only worth what some Gomer will pay...more like in the $10,000 range, imho....
I guess I shudda checked out Paul's link...danggit! Even so, the car in the actual pics of the kit car has different rims...but then, if you look at This Pic of her sitting in the car, it all seems more believable...
Just goes to show what I know...
I still don't think the car is worth anything...definitely not what they think it is worth....

1.2 million and the pictures are taken in what appears to be a junkyard?
Is this guys name Mr. Clampet and he's going to sell his car and more to Beverly Hills?

Butugly,Butugly, Butugly (Butt+ugly = butugly) 'nuff said. IMHO; I have seen very few customized C3's that are an improvement on the original.
There is no substitute for low end torque! 
I hope that fellow REALLY likes that car, 'cause he'll probably have it a while...........

Ya know....iffin it weren't for the pimp-daddy interior, the rest of the car is not that bad, for a late '70s custom. The bodywerk still looks like it has held up fairly well. It would make a neat driver, but you'd have to spend at least $3000 to re-do the interior, and another $5000 to repaint it RED, so there's $8000 ya gotta spend already, on a $10,000 car. Sounds like it oughta sell for around $2000, right? I may make an offer, and see what Mr. Drysdale says...
Who knows...maybe the Six Meeellion Dollar Man is hurting for money these days....
