If you are talking GT40 (replicas) then a quick look on carsales shows 9 for sale currently priced between $90K and $169K and I imagine varing fit, finish and quality exist here.

Regardless... if I had the coin I would like to have one in the garage.
yep refering to the fords gt,not gt replicas,i remember dopey sod Jeremy Clarkson from top gear bought one and had unlimited probs with the security gps system in it.some of them hit our shore rhd conversion done ..doc

There is one out here that is probably for sale.
It is a long time build car by an ex aircraft engineer.
The fella past away early this year.
He was a bit of a recluse and often said to me to come for a look, I tried a few times but every time I knocked on the door there was no one home?
I hear it is an older Roaring 40s car, and has permission from MVR (in NT when building ICV you need to apply to build with a build sheet, at the time carbs where legal and he had permission for downdraft webbers)
Apparently it is a really tidy build and in paint (Yellow with black stripes) but never been registered or complied.
I heard rummors around town years ago it was for sale and even had someone contact me through CC to see if I knew about the car and its condition.

Holman Moody for continuation series authenticity for historic racing for sure...

Mind you I'd suggest Gelscoe may top them... for the money you'd certainly hope so.

The money that these guys spend puts a whole new perspective of what cars can cost.

We have our first full production run of PACE GT kits in the pipeline now. So will publish photos etc soon. We are already taking orders and are already holding a lot of deposits for them.

Starting bid id now $43k less engine!
It is worth what someone else is prepared to pay.
Charlie Cash should clinch the deal and I am surprised that the ebay merchant did not accept the previous auction result.
