Turns out it was a ferrari of which only 13 were built. 

 

The thing caught fire in a race and was bought by a collector.

 

It's just been bought to be restored.

 

Price tag for the rusted shell?

 

Two million dollars!   WOW!

Parts + Labor on a 1 of 13. :confusion-confused: Hope the finished product will be worth around 10 million +.

Once you have vastly more than enough money to meet your needs and wants, what is there to spend it on?

Philanthropy -- but it seems most just have the desire for more.

Er? Buy your own island, fly to space for three minutes, buy sports teams, not to mention run for president 

/prime minister.

Plenty to do with endless cash. 

It's just a shame that so few have so much and so many have so little. Typical of the human race I'm afraid.

Research to find a cure/prevention of cancer comes to mind.

In my opinion, the traits that help one amass huge wealth rarely inspire altruism.
