David Kirkham stated to me 289 are more time consuming to manufacture than 427.

I have built one and now on #2, they are slow, sourcing hard and a bit of work to get everything to gel before hitting the road.

Details cost and the CSX, SPF, KMS, ERA and other small MFG folks invest tons of time and cost into each one.
As for the CSX jump = Anniversary cars....

BTW KMS are alloy but glass cars also require work and are not to be discounted.
Tell me about it! I have been collecting parts for my leaf spring for about 5 years now! If one starts a build and wanting it accurate, tries to source parts to make it so quickly, the parts won't be available.
Plus you have to know what you're looking for. I have some pretty rare parts and am constantly looking for others.
One of my parts I'm pretty proud of:
