With the Firebirds they never said they were the prototypes, they wanted them because they were the 1st and 2nd Firebirds ever made, and Richard did not pay $300K for them, he bought them for $70K as a pair from a guy in Connecticut, he sold them before they even started fixing them for $300 or $350K and agreed to fix them for another $300K, that was what the episode was about, them getting them fixed in a 60 day deadline and if they went any days over the deadline they would lose $10K a day off the total amount Richard was due. I don't know if the channel who created this video did their research or just saw one of those phony list on some website and went off that information, but they're wrong. Also, they made the deadline with a few small details like the correct gearknob still waiting to be sent to them but the buyer let them off and gave them the money because he knew they would continue on with the small details. The buyer bought them to put them in a museum which he did, and they sat their for a few years, I don't know if they were sold when they left the museum and for how much, but I thought people should know the truth about this since the video is completely wrong, Richard actually made $580K profit minus labor on the builds. Those who make KZbin videos you should do your research before posting because people will call you out for the mistakes.

In the show he supposedly was not going to attempt to repair the Mustang at all because the whole thing made him sick. So its possible he lost the entire 50K he had invested in the car, parts and labor cost not repair cost. He also got the story about the Firebirds completely wrong too. Richard new from day one they were Firebird number one and two off the assembly line and no one on the show represented them as prototype cars. GM almost never sells any prototype and when one does accidently get sold they will pay top dollar to get it back. He also did not lose any money on them as he sold the cars and was paid to restore them. The buyer he sold them to had to sell them a few years later and he lost a large sum of money on them. Most of this video is bullspit.

I watched the show for a few seasons and then got tired of it, especially when Aaron left. It seemed every show ended with "Yeah we dropped a million horsepower engine into this thing and slammed it and it's the greatest vehicle ever". I sent several suggestions to them including one where I said they should get a car like a 60's Falcon and drop a four cyl ecoboost making over 300 HP into it and keep the rest totally stock with the exception of detroit steel wheels...just for a change. It's JMO that anyone can drop a ridiculously big motor into a car and burn wheels but it takes talent to put a smaller motor in that can still give you great performance while still delivering 30 mpg.
