Mark IV,

I was mistaken on the issue of the aluminum body on the MKIV, I was thinking of the CRS version of the MKIV which used composite material for the body. After a quick check of the logs it looks like several alum body MKIV cars were built by AC back in the mid to late 90's. This does not change my opinion of the labor hours and yes they lost a lot of money.

Ernie,

The brakes will be Girling on the CSX1000 however we do not provide the engine (owners pref) on component vehicles so it is a coin toss on how they will be finished out. If a steel block is used as apposed to an aluminum it will lower the final cost of the vehicle by $10K, I am in agreement that it should be steel if we had the choice in order to stay on the same page as the original '65.
