Guys,
OK so it's my first post so be gentle. As much as I'd like to build a car from scratch I dont have the time, although maintaining has lots of appeal. So, I really like the look of the SPF MKII mixed with a Rouch 427SR or FE? and a ZFQ etc. I have a mountain more investigation to go but you get the idea. But even before I get there I am getting wide variances on price.
Now I know that some prices will be for rolling chassis minus engine/trans etc.
The following site here in the UK http://www.gt40continuation.co.uk/GT40_superformance_shelbydaytonacobra.html
is showing £85K ~ $165,000 US on road, :sad: I have heard of £100K ~ $195K US on road in UK also :sad::sad:
The commemorative version is $125K US ~ £64K for rolling chassis :sad:

someone mentioned they paid new $65K US ~ £33K :thumbsup:
Noticed these used SPF's on the market
Superformance GT40 for sale
$100K US ~ £52K :undecided: but not my colour (black) and RHD is absolute necessity.
The car will end up in Australia (I shudder to think what the rep there will ask for) and the Aussie Govt will make sure they take as much as they can (makes my blood boil) which is another topic.
But what of these prices where in the world is waldo? Or my GT40 for that matter? Where is the cheapest place to buy? The economy going the way it is and imminent bad times ahead what to do? I'm thinking buy/build in US and ship to Aus. Ideas?
