Very nice car, but the unadulterated sales hype is off-putting to me. Good luck getting $100,000+ for it.
I was thinking along the same lines. A very well thought out build and finished product. Just not a realistic price point. If anyone selling a car like that thinks it's worth it, then take it to Meccum or R&S or BJ and let the market make the call.

But the late 50's XKs are really gaining ground for investors, so I can understand why he is motivated to move to that (versus owning a replica that will, at best, go absolutely no where).
