Thanks for posting this up -- OMG WOW!!

Those guys work with guys who don't care what the cost is. I think Mike? Moal told me this was the 8-10th car they had one for this guy. They just started on a coupe version of this car before this one was done. A few years ago Mike Moal ( Steve's Son ) told me they have trouble building a car under 7 figures. But just look at all the hand built details. There is nothing but time in this car. Everything is built to the top, Not a single corner cut anywhere. No where.

I'd rather have that for 2.3M that some 1920s Blower Bentley that only old guys in funny pants care about.

I was told this car has around 2.3 invested.
Am I being picky? For 2.3mil I wouldn't want a half sanded weld showing on the underside of the hood.
Oh and different length fasteners on that block on the flange.
