82549You know, if I had all the money in the world, I would have a fleet of jets including the F4 Phantom. It’s just a bad ass plane. But I don’t have all the money in the world, so *I guess* I’m just going to have to settle for the Phantom Bar instead.

But for that cash, at least you get real Martin-Baker Mk7 ejection seats from an F4 Phantom that have been restored to museum quality. The jet packs have been removed unfortunately. I just wish that the company would put better pics on its website. I mean, if I’m going to drop $225k on something, I kind of want to know what it looks like, right?
