Well that explains everything! Of course Chebbie power is the the superior choice for a Cobra replica that can't be licensed for the the street. They make for superior field cars without a doubt.

How did I miss that? This has all been a terrible misunderstanding.

Thor, I do apologize.

Thor came clean on the question, now there's you at the other end of the spectrum. You say to build your car today it would cost $260K. Ok, what did it cost you to build yours (at the time) and what year was that?

No, he didn't come clean. What was his selling price? Still waiting.

Cost of an alloy Continuation rolliing chassis in 2000/2001 was around $72k as I recall. Cost of fit up back then $25K to $30k roughly using a 427SO or Shelby aluminum 427.

Cost today is $180K for rolling chassis as I understand. Cost of final fit up depending on engine $40K to $60K estimated today with SO or aluminum 427 and "options" (less options back then since things were included). You can do for less with a 428 or 390FE though.
