Well there ARE those but they are not a "GT40".

And let's not devolve into the "continuation/replica/kit" argument. Any "GT40" built with a monocoque will be more expensive and complex. On the SPF/Gelscoe/Etc. GT the roof is double panel stamped steel. Do you think that costs more than a piece of fiberglass?
