So, let me understand, since Kirkham has recently supplied aluminum bodies to Shelby (though they're not the only supplier), you're saying that the quality of the AC body exceeds the quality of the Kirkham supplied Shelby CSX4000's and therefore, CSX1001 with an AC body is better and more valuable than a Kirkham bodied CSX4000?

I didn't understand the logic before, but now I do, assuming I have it right. Personally, I have no idea if one body is better than the other, I'm no expert, but I would refer you to Trevor's post above. Does the AC body use the thicker aluminum like the Kirkham body?

At any rate, CSX1001 has much more value to me than a CSX4000 series because of the number (being #1), fewer built than the 4000 series, and having Shelby in the title mix, etc.
