No, he didn't come clean. What was his selling price? Still waiting.

Cost of an alloy Continuation rolliing chassis in 2000/2001 was around $72k as I recall. Cost of fit up back then $25K to $30k roughly using a 427SO or Shelby aluminum 427.

Cost today is $180K for rolling chassis as I understand. Cost of final fit up depending on engine $40K to $60K estimated today with SO or aluminum 427 and "options" (less options back then since things were included). You can do for less with a 428 or 390FE though.
