Unfortunately the car has been sold twice since the ad. I followed it from the first ad in Hemmings to the dealer who bought it. I went to see it and tried to buy it the next day only to find out that he had sold it to one of his regular customers somewhere "up north". The car looked fantastic and ran real nice, though I don't think that it had 400+HP as the ad said.
It was all I needed to get the itch to look for another. Although I have seen others for sale with higher asking prices, there has been little more, if any, value in what they have for sale.
By the way, just before I saw that ad, I missed another Australian replica that was beautifully done by a guy in Washington state. That one was sold to another buyer in SW Florida. He was asking $55,000! His whole build sequence was documented on his website.

Still looking,
