Bill,
I am glad to see that your expectations were met and that your build cost was at a significant discount to what a lot of these cars cost to construct. It makes me think about my cars as my CSX cost significantly more to create back in 2006. As well, I am now deep into a Shelby GT40 Cammer project and although I did not buy these cars for investment purposes it makes me wonder if I ever want to sell these items what the market value will be in relation to my costs. This is especially true when I hear of a Superformance GT40 costing in excess of $200K to build sells for $60K. No one has a crystal ball about future market value, but it makes you think perhaps you buy a pre-owned car and make it your own as opposed to starting from the ground up.
