Value is placed on a combination of the quality of the kit/manufacturer, the quality of the parts used, along with the quality of the build itself. If you are buying a new build, expect to take a larger financial hit down the road at resale time just as you would with any new car purchase. However, if you are looking at these cars as an investment, perhaps you are better off not buying one at all as every day there are more and more of them being built thus diluting the marketplace with even more cars..Some well built, others not. See my original post (so as not to cloud things, not the line where I am trying to sell you my car) and read it over and over and over again until that part sinks in and you can say it from memory, and remember you get what you pay for when it comes to these cars.....


Again I hope you find this helpful.


Sincerely,

Yours In Fords,

Bill S.
