Is that an all aluminum Shelby fe engine in the blue Kirkham on Cobra Country?
If so, doesn't that engine retail for close to $30,000.
Just sayin, apples to apples, Evans car ain't worth the $$$$$$ to me. I'd buy the blue one and wave the extra $100,000 at him as I drove by.

And the blue one is dry sump and has a diff cooler (offered by SAI). Does Evan have either?

Dave Brown, the owner of the blue KMP, is every bit of fastidious, as Evan. Dave had Stewart Hall disaasemble and reassemble his car after he bought it. BTW, I also used Stewart Hall. And I always thought the dry sump had major "cool" factor in the same vein as a Cammer would. |

You can easily spend that depending on the build and how it's finished.

Yup, then start polishing everything!
I do like the OEM fuel filter on the blue car. Very true to the original, as it looks like the rest of the car is. A very nice build!!

One of the nicest Kirkhams I've ever seen listed.

Yup have to agree !!! Work of art.. Lots of "cool guy" parts on it to if that's what your looking for. Nice paint ... I like painted cars  But like Evans car it's way to nice for me flying down my dirt road

Perfectly legitimate -
"Per California Vehicle Code §4750.1, the first 500 program applicants in each calendar year may choose whether the inspection is based on the model-year of the engine used in the vehicle or the vehicle model-year. If the engine or the vehicle does not sufficiently resemble one previously manufactured, the referee will assign 1960 as the model-year." |

None. Dave's KMP has the SB100 exemption. No smog checks for the life of the car.
When I got my SB100 certificate in 2008, CA BAR referee was still asking the question of a) year of car that it resembles or b) year of engine. The date of the SB100 exemption for Dave's car is 2004. |
