Which GT40?

How many hours to build and then to paint the RCR? Even at a $50.00 hourly rate (which won't get you much of ao shop) the hours will add up to a considerable amount. Props to those who do their own builds but it is not for everyone.

I don't think so. Let's not BS the public.

Obviously, this is your area of expertise as an SPF dealer, but Hillbank has 3-4 SPF GT40 listings at $165,000-$170,000. I remember Jack Houpe (sp?) had his sold with 13,000 miles with a $135,000 ask price.

I've seen completed RCR's and ERA's ask prices in the $90,000-$100,000 range.The roller price of an SPF is roughly $100,000+ and the RCR deluxe kit is $42,000. It won't cost $60,000 +/- to get the RCR to a completed painted roller.

In fact, I've seen postings on the GT40s forum that RCR's are much less than $100,000 for a completely sorted finished painted running product.
