Cobra427,
HST did complete cars but supposedly for out of country delivery only. Don't recall about this one. There's quite a bit of what us hobbyists would call 'strange dealings' with some CSXs, particularly HSTs. Like warehouses with built and unbuilt cars, offers of unsold rollers, 'deals' from quasi private parties (investors), etc. You know, regular stuff around this hobby.

Mine was one of the 7 carbon fiber cars. All were built by HST. HST's complete cars were all suffixed with LA (Latin America, e.g. mine was CSX4005LA) and were built specifically for some customers in Mexico City. Two of that batch were CF cars.
