Question Puzzled? Don't feel like the Lone Ranger!

As I recall, in the last year or so SpeedTV ran a sweepstakes in which the grand prize was a Factory Five kit, a crate engine and $5000 in shop tools.
In the fine print the Approximate Retail Value of the prize was stated as $50,000. I can do the simple math...less the tools we're talking $45 big ones for the kit and engine.
Then in the fine fine print there was also a statement that the kit may not contain all the parts necessary to complete the project! And keep in mind, the doggone thing's not painted yet!
So congrats if your build came in under $25K, but I have a feeling that most of them don't.
