He's likely around or over 50k into the car
$20k for the complete kit
12K ish for the engine
$2500 for tranny
$8000-$10000 in paint an body
$7-10k in misc stuff (tires, brakes, powdercoating, breeze prts, headers,etc)
now your question of "couldn't you build one for less?" Sure...
$13000 for the base kit,
$1000ish for a donor
$1000ish in body/paint material
$2000-$3000 in misc stuff
So I guess if you used everything off the donor mustang, and didn't spend a penny in rebuilding anything you could be under $20k. I haven't seen a car built like that in a while though. And certainly the car the OP referenced isn't one of those
