I recently came across a former nascar display chassis of Mark Martin and the Viagra car. It is a roller with fully painted sheet metal, is movalble on race tires, has no engine, tranny, fuel cell, Blahahahh. A company had it on display at one of there local malls and went bankrupt/closed. The mall gave the manger a remove it now or else. So he did.

Well the price of this has been coming down to a point that they are just about giving it away in my opinion. SO what would you do? Try to sell it too someone to make a race chassis out of(Lots of unkown's) or try to market it to a Mark Martin Fan and a real full size collectble. Any guidence you could give would be helpful!! Thanks John O

You really have to watch the show car stuff. Most of the shops will make it very apparrent that it wasn't made to be a race car by either using smaller tubes or welding it such that its almost impossible to drive.

If you were just going to have it on display....sure go for it...if you want to drive it....find someone that is familiar with the car and/or chassis and make sure that it is a safe car.
