More or less like the Shelby kit cars. Makes for a fun build without the restoration. However..that also will be the downfall at the end of the build, it isnt a 64.5. Build it to enjoy it!

The Kit cars are far more stuff though than just a shell, and can be had 3k cheaper from Factory Five. The vert would cost more to build. There is no telling where you can find a complete vert top frame and how much it would cost. The other parts are all similar in cost to any other aftermarket parts for those cars.
