    Easy- BLOODY EXPENSIVE. A pretty good car would be $500k, a mega car is early $600k these days.

    How funny you should choose THAT photo to post. That particular car HAS been repaired and is now Roland Linder's LM replica. The story was written up in Forza a few years back.

    The article is very interesting to read. He got a NOS engine off ebay for bargain basement price and they made a fair bit of the chassis as I recall.
    Pretty much all new body panels too.

    Amazing. I never knew this. I am interested in that Forza article. I wonder how much the rebuild set Roland back?

    That's what I was thinking. It has got to have cost more than a half reasonable F40. Although if he got the engine for half of nothing, then he may well have been able to do it "cheaper" than an average example? I have my doubts though.
