I think the new owner is Mike Warn, past owner of Warn Industries. My understanding is he is a partner in Grand Prix Imports.

If interested, a buddy of mine has a perfect red CSX glass car for sale, CSX4242, built by Billy Andrews at HRE.
Red, 427SO, the best of the best with 600 miles on it for $93,000. This car is perfect in every way and is currently listed in Hemmings Motor News.

Hello Rick,
I have CSX4264 in my garage and really love the car, mine has a 427SO from Southern Automotive and 4-speed top loader. The car you are looking at looks great and it has an Aluminum 427 with a 5-speed. The 4-speed is traditional, the 5-speed is easier to live with. I think the $92,500 number is a fair price for this car IMHO 
You need to drive it, get it on a rack and inspect it end to end for oil leaks, bottom damage, scrapping under the oil cooler, look inside the Wheel wells, look at the fit of the Aluminum kit etc. etc. You may even try to hook up with a mechanic you trust to check the compression ratio across the cylinders , drive shaft run out and general condition of the installation. If something is wrong inside that motor you could get it home drive a few thousand miles and then the issues that 427's are famous for could present themselves as an expensive thrill.
Here is another Aluminum Continuation Cobra at Fantasy Junction:

BTW they also have a new Ford GT there for $179,500.

I bet they'd take less... Bring them $87,500 in a suitcase and see what happens.

I have a friend who recently finished a very nice brushed Aluminum Kirkham, Southern side oiler, David Kee toploader with Nascar shift rods, 2X4 set up professionally by some hot shoes here in Houston, etc. I have no idea about the selling price, but email me if you are interested. He recently had his first kid and that may have influenced him to sell so soon. I finally have mine up and running pretty well, so I'd like to get it on the road ASAP. steve meltzer "unemcumbered by the thought process"
