I actually did bid on this vehicle. Never interested to own one but for maybe one reason. I emailed the company and later spoke to a rep and answered all my questions. Took a look at it while in Malibu and it was sweet. I think I would have bid higher if the colors were reversed, never know what another bidder would have pushed it to. I am limited in the knowledge department on market value on these and asked someone that knows better than I. Maybe market value but with that engine and compared to the few I've seen maybe it was a bargain. My gut sort of sides with bargain. Not that money was a concern I made several purchases recently at that Auctions America in Cali that sold off many of the Petersons Museum vehicles. Haven't made a purchase in a long time.
Can I ask what a similarly equipped Kirkham new would go for compared to this one NEW?

To build a Kirkham like this with that engine would be about $1400,000- $150,000, that engine will bring a premium... Kirkham roller finished=$100,000-engine,etc=$50,000...pricing off Kirkham website, could be done cheaper if finished yourself to save on labor, etc...
