Very sweet rig, but what would be the fun of buying a rig that is mostly complete?

The guys obviously waiting for some n00b to see it and buy it. If i put the time and money into it id charge a good amount, but it wouldnt USE it if i was building to sell. Keep it all brand new and shiny for the new owner.

The exo does look nice, But if you are going to have something built like that shouldn't it have a skid for the gas tank.

lol exactly what I was thinking. While I do think 22K for that is a little much, I can't beleive how cheap some of you guy's are...lol.

Sure it may have more than 10K in parts, but you also have to think of the fab time involved. He obviously values the time he spent on his rig, and doesn't really care if people think it's overpriced. There are people out there that would rather spend good money on something that already is built, than spend their time trying to do the work themselves.

I feel the same way about my CRX (not that I'm selling it ). In parts it probubly isn't more than $10,000, but I wouldn't take anything less than $15,000 for it because of the time and effort I've put into it.

So, he's got a coil over rear, 37's, 17" beadlocks, and an Exo cage, but he doesn't have rear disk brakes?
