So, back on track................ is it an aly car that you "must" have or a "CSX"?
Both is ~$150k any way you slice it, new or used. Steve Becker may still have a new black aly roller, finish it your way, you are original owner, I believe he wanted ~$140ish.
CSX painted glass roller new is ~ $80, again, finish it your way.

Now for value, an unpainted Kirkham is CURRENTLY (not sure how long that will last) about half the price of a Shelby aly roller. As you probably know they build 'em for Shelby.

Hope that helps.

Best, Bret.
