I'm not trying to grind this out but everyone seems to be missing the point.
I was not refering to how much it would cost
now to build this car.
I had stated that Bud didn't loose as much as people think because if you read his ebay ad you'll see that a lot of the options were
included at the time. He also mentioned (in the ad) he's a distributor of shelby parts. If Kirkham has plucked away some standard items then the cost has increased even if the base price has remained the same.
I agree that the car was worth more, I saw a similar one sell for around $95k about 1 1/2 months ago on ebay.
Bud, like many here lived his dream. It's tough to put a price on that. Not to mention Cobras would be about as exciting as a Camery if they were all the same. (well, not quite
that dull)
Guess I shouldn't mention how tempted I was to stick a Boss 429 in mine...
