It "might " be an investment but I suspect at 177k initial expense this money could be used to buy other cars which would have a larger potential buyers market and hence appreciate faster -Karl
Agreed, while I can appreciate the rarity it doesnt do much for me. I would get much more personal enjoyment out of a dinged rusted faded paint patina car.

Kinda like a Winchester Model 1898 shotgun for example, most are honest use guns around $300, I'm not paying you 10X the value because its got a rare upsidedown stamping somewhere....BUT there is someone somewhere that has more money than they know what to do with and CAN buy it so just like this car it will be bought.
