Probably added more than 100 pounds to the car. I wonder if it has the original paint under them.

Just my .02 cents... that car ain’t worth a dime or plug nickel, probably not too good in the Quarter mile because half it’s weight is the copper covering. Bettcha a dollar to a donut, the owner is a little eccentric?(not my true feelings, just a little writing cleverness)

This car reminded me of a spectacular Pro Mod drag car, Mike Knowles “Blown Money” that has actual $100 bills in the car’s hood paint (link provided) https://www.google.com/search?q=pro+...cGpygPa4b-aatM

I saw that car in person 25 years ago it was in Bloomfield CT. Charlie Regini did it,and his friend Charlie Heck sold me his 54 vette. Charlie ran the corvette swap meet at the polo grounds in Farmington about 40 years ago,which then became the Mopar show I believe . Great guy. Drove his motorcycle from CT to Sturgis when he was 90. Good old days

Bet your tunes would change if one of those pennies was a super rare one off! :)

It proves throwing money at a car doesn't always increase its value.

A penny for your thoughts!!!

A penny saved is a penny earned...,

Evidently the owner was penny wise, but pound foolish.

Ill bet when the owner takes that out for a drive the coppers are all over it.
