One of the last cars we restored at my shop before I retired was a '67 Firebird coupe. It was one of the few we could find, and the customer got it from Minnesota so it was rough af. Re-skinned it, paint and body, DS sub-frame and suspension, Currie 12, LT4, T6060, carbon driveshaft, and monster Wilwood brakes, and flush mounted glass. He had over 120k in it when it left, and it still didn't have an interior. And that was 2018-19 money. So, paying 10 guys here, and to do a complete with all the upgrades, he lost his ASS at 130k.

$130 grand is way too much, especially with them ugly rims. Old fashioned Cragars would look so much better. ( In my opinion)

Test drive without driving the car 🤣

I'm pretty sure Richard is still trying to recover from his loss on the Beautiful Navy or Black FORD GT that went to the Barret - Jackson auction

I don’t remember this show . That car is gorgeous!

Beautiful! That blue looks early 70's Trans Am I would add white or black racing stripes or a screaming chicken. Year One wheels. Great car.

2:25why is it all dented up

If Richard charges his “friends” an insane amount of money for a regular firebird… imagine what he will charge a regular stranger. I never understood how anyone would sell this dude a car or buy a car from him. You know u getting screwed

Russell and his funny turntable joke sooooo funny :/

It's worth it. Time is Priceless.

Got screwed big time on that $ $ ......LOL ......

what year tis happen

Beautiful car sounds amazing to

Awesome

he's $85k in yet charges his friend $130k + all beer for the rest of the year? WHATTA FRIEND

RERUN!!!! From a fan!

Beautiful car, though I would much prefer factory wheels.

He makes a lot more than he looses beleave me he's good playing it up its the ego

I almost forgot why Richard always has new guys working for him,

I stay confused...So who is shop foreman, Jason or Chase???

Nice after ride hairdo!

Can't believe the price he got, is that real or fake news?

sick

sure he did Lol

So funny the show ends and all the guys gone...lol

Glad he got rid of that prick next to him on this episode..the bearded one. He brought down the whole vibe of building a car,or anything.

he does overcharge and he know people will buy it.. same with low balling.

More money than sense!

I would never pay for a car what i would pay for a 3 bed 2 bath house.lol. everybody knows u never get what ubput in a car

Russell doing what he does best NOTHING !!!

It just needed fuel to get to the rail and intake.. and that ain't the battery it's compression of a big block motor!! A BUTLER BIG BLOCK MOTOR at that! C'mon guys!!! There's dudes that would love your job!! 😉

a "crate-350" would have been SO much easier & cheaper !! ... anything less than the Pontiac rallye rims are wrong !!

130. For that you must have a screw loose

How do these needs always have so much money to buy toys? Wild.

Beautiful car but way to expensive and that Russell character , why is he there ????

Then you see them putting there hands all over the fresh paint a no no no guys

Hurry...faster...you Never get back what you put into it..

hello from indonesia 🇮🇩

Cool 😎

Beautiful color !!!!

If I hit that $1.28 billion mega millions tonight I can’t wait to say “ $105,000 .... ok $135,000 “ n not even give a crap , n buy the Beer for a Year🤞🏼

The Bible warns about gluttony and money greed.

Richard you were drinking period.

the car not my taste but nice car for someone, i just wrapping up a 70 el camino and the money put into it is just over the top, i would like to know how much cash was put into the car

Richard Sells The 67 foot Pontiac

That is about a $60k car at best!

1st year for Pontiac Firebird. 326.5 CUI. IN 1968 = 327 CUI. like the Chevy Caprice & Impala. 400CUI. Firebird also came along.

Can't stand Richard he just rubs me the wrong way I watch for the cars 🤣

Richard Rawlings lost in drag races to the 405 street outlaws in drag races, however... his shop produces badass, built cars. Enough horsepower to have fun and be fast. Fast enough to beat anyone in a Real street race. But, being worth its weight?. I would buy a car built by Gas Monkey before I would buy a car built by Midwest Street Cars. At least I would know that it was built right and made to go for a Lot of miles. Not a quarter mile. Well, 1/8th of a mile. He has his strong points, just like they do.

I would Never deal with him. He's a snake in the grass!

No Respect to the future buyer as he's beating the car down and laughing about it!!!! Really?!!!!

Having a potential buyer ride passenger side, is not how you sell a car

fools that have money

IF Richard sold something for $130K.. he must have bought it for $150K.. lol

A fool and there money soon part company.

TV BS prices.

If you have money you wouldnt care yall 70k yearly 135k is way to much

It's called boomer money.

130k for that 🤣🤣🤣 Gtfoh

But a pokemon card sold for $700k

Nicely restored cared for Regimental Red Firebird 326? becomes a blue Firebird bitsa, albeit with full nut and bolt rebuild with a big donk. Meh, I guess it was worth it, they got a couple of videos out of it.

This show went downhill when that Russell clown showed up.

People in the comments don’t know butler engines or what good suspension is lol it’s not cheap but it’s not in heard of for a modern Pontiac

And yes I can Afford his Clown car.

Putting the stuff on that made you famous does KZfaq use must really be dropping if you got back to this type of stuff more people would watch you again

And that's all I'm trying to say with my comments is that you're only appealing to certain audiences yeah you're going to make some money for sure but it's like music if you got a hit out there that's going to attract older people younger people all people around the world you're going to sell so many records it will be unbelievable

Beautiful car until you put the big giant clown rims on it nasty looking I had a 67 Firebird big block 400 ran like a freaking bear but it never came with freaking 18 and 20-in rims so the car don't look right to me

Blue 👎👎👎

Toys for the wealthy.. the average working man can't afford them , car not worth that kind of money.

FIRST

Way, way, way overpriced!

Gas monkey makes garbage

That's not a custom blue that a Ford blue on a firebird. Sick it's like seeing a Ford painted a Chevy orange.
