Hi,

Well, it underwent the restoration project 7 yrs. ago. And, it wasn't truly a restoration, it was a modification to make it Street Legal.

In the world of collector cars, you usually only recover 1/3 of your restoration cost, which is why the wisdom is to buy an already restored car - it's cheaper than doing it yourself.

I suspect, given it's provenance, it was probably worth more if it had been left 'As Built'. Making it Street Legal probably negatively impacted it's value quite a bit...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
