Forget dollars, how much profit (in percentage) would you charge if you were Shelby? 10%?  Yeah, right.

A file finish Kirkham roller is $80K. A painted alloy Shelby is $160,000. A painted alloy 50th Anniversary Shelby is $180,000.
How much is prep and paint? $20K just for the sake of discussion? Well, whatever the final profit margin, there are buyers who feel the name is worth it and we all know that an alloy Kirkham Cobra or alloy Shelby Cobra are constructed by the best.
