GT-40's would be in the ball park except for the J car. Rick L. Ps 198 is almost all orginial alot of the others have been restored to original. Paint repairs, and nose repair are all that was done to 198 with 50 years of racing. Even the orginial motor is back in it at SAAC 31 in VIR. Not alot of cars can say this.
CSX3035 is a great car, but I would disagree with the stated condition and value. Rick.

There's not much under the hood, in the interior or under the trunk that is original... but that comes with being a real live race car for decades.

It's a great car but not in this league of value.
