| + | Where is the proof? There is not any. Ebay does not count. There are all kinds of street rods and hot rods that bring in great resale, and there are even more that do not. Regardless if it is a Street Beast, Outlaw, steel bodied original. There are too many deciding factors that make up the resale, and not always does it matter who the manufacturer is. | ||

| + | As the majority of Street Beast cars do have a much lower resale value, compared to other manufactures, this is due to unfinished vehicles and lack of details by the "novice" builder. Any "kit car" when done right, with the right looks, details, overall appearance, and many other deciding factors will bring in the desired amount, regardless of the manufacturer. | ||

| + | It is not fair to say a Street Beast 34 will not bring in what an Outlaw 34 will bring. How does anyone actually know this? Plain and simple, they don't! If both vehicles are done poorly, they will not bring the same amount in. If they are done beautifully, they will bring in the desired amounts - seen it for myself. The majority of this resale controversy is based on Ebay sales. Street Rods and hot rods do not have high resale unless the purchaser has their specific desires met by the vehicle. Anyone that goes and is looking for a specific vehicle, specific appearance, and overall the vehicle meets their desires, they will be willing to spend more. | ||

| + | Of course, when you have a pig headed, stubburn street rodder that knows of the Street Beast reputation, they would probably not think twice of purchasing a finished vehicle. Although, there are many street rodders out there that do overlook these issues, they see a vehicle, not a name or manufacturer. You have to be interested in the specific vehicle to be willing to spend the money on one. | ||
