A good friend of mine just finished almost the exact same car, exact same high $$$ lay-down rear suspension, etc, nicer motor, same subframe/bracing - susp from Total Control here in Sacramento... Blue and all. Farmed out 95% of the work too. His car is actually a bit NICER, and it was completed, for under $20K. Done!. Okay, he did get the 65/66 shell for cheap, so maybe others would need to add another $5k if you have pay too much for the shell, doors, etc.

BTW: I'm certain he would sell it for $50K minus the marketing and save someone $43K. If there are any takers, I'd be glad to pass it along. Heck, send me an email tonight! He wants to sell the car to buy a replica Cobra, go figure! Hehehehe.

Parts are parts, and it does not take special contacts to build one of these with a nice clean 65/66 shell to start with. It won't be long before these start getting cloned too. More replicas of replicas of replicas. 3rd Generation Replicas!
