I agree...but there is even a larger margin between a pre-4000 and a continuation... Sometimes as much as 300-400k.

Don't get me wrong, I would love to own a pre 4000 series. I think the 4000 plus series is a great car, but I feel the value with the Kirkham is better for what I want out of a hand built metal car.

A funny thing though: there were a bunch of street rods there that are "not original" that brought well over 100k....with no mention of "replica"... I believe that this is due to the level of craftsmanship involved,,,,...Kind of like what we are seeing in the top of the Cobra / GT40 replica industry....
