You can also count on some guy who consistently pays less than you and always seems to find the "deal of century"....and tells you that you overpaid.
Yep, I bought mine during the '08 summit and got $9k in free options. Currently I've got about $112k in receipts.

I think ng is expecting to win a trophy for building the cheapest Kirkham or somthin.

Hell, I took the easy way out, I just stopped counting. I'm going to build my car as a like it, and I'll count up the receipts afterward. Whatever they are, they are......

Yo 767,

Great response........you go through the process and build to the image you have in your mind and how you expect to use the car.

I started the GT40 build before I married my wife and had no idea she would be claustrophobic in it. It does not work for how we want to use it for wine country, Pacific shore cruises and travel through inland California so we are moving on.

BTW I agree with RedBarchetta ---- Screaming deal for quality Kirkham .

I have an image in my head for an SPF Daytona !!!!!!



Thank you MadMaxx.....
