It's obviously a circle of car enthusiasts I'm not used to.
    my hq gts350 is insured at 85k...market at the moment is still in the 70k range to take it to a shannons auction from what they tell me...as an early gts those caps are correct for my coupe...i do have a set on it but they are fair..if i was keeping the car i would certainly pay that much for a nos set as long as they were perfect in every way...obviously because of my business i do move in that circle of enthusiasts where price is not an option for the correct parts...the single headlight nose cone he has is also priced correctly for nos...the parts may not be priced to everyones budget but thats the difference between a rich car enthusiast and a poor one....as for restoration costs outweighing the value of the vehicle...a true car enthusiast does not restore his car for profit.he/she restores it for passion and cost does not come into it..this is what seperates the rich from the poor and the boys/girls from the men/women..
