Well, I'd have to say Kev, honestly, if an SPF is more than you want to spend, you might as well forget any of the other more accurate bodied cars, as thay are all in that price range.
I don't know what to say about your $75k Kirkham roller quote. You could build a finished car for that amount. I didn't pay anywhere close to that for my KMP roller, it was only a few grand more than an SPF or ERA roller.
I have heard people say that Hurricane has a decent body shape, plus they aren't anywhere as much as an ERA or SPF. That might be a brand looking into.
Contemporary also has a really nice shape, but of course you'd have to buy a used car.
ERA is a nice car, but as mentioned, it's more based off a street car than an S/C. I can tell you this... I had an ERA in my shop for some time, and sitting next to my CSX, the rear of the car looked really different, so take that for what it's worth.
Another thing worth mentioning... Comp cars had no rear wheel lip. So if you are going for an original style look, you could easily go for a comp car look with a no or small lip body, and it would still basically look like an S/C. Just food for thought.
