What is with the big metal rivets in seats these days? Just not a fan. The car looks awesome. I would love to see a full build video or series of pics to see what went into that. Well done!
Man, I would love to watch a full build video! It takes a lot of talent to do that level of work.

Here’s another one.

Another alternative, $140-175k. No affiliation, I just came across the link. Beautiful execution if the pics are any indication.

I like the execution on this example far better. For that kind of money though, you could have a really nice original.

Personally, I also like the Starke version better than this one but would have to agree with Rex that $150K will buy a really nice original.

I agree. The Stark is more true to the original, and I suppose the desire would be new, modern mechanicals. But yeah, for the $$$ I’d just buy an original.
