Currently on Ebay. $750.00?
Now I know that the car in question has a certain mystique about it. It is perceived to be more difficult to assemble than it really is. But really!
The kit is still in production and I doubt any custom builder would charge that kind of rate to build this car. I know that I don't for the 4 I've built.
Maybe it's time to revisit my building rates.

Saw that. Was perplexed. Presumed that the owner's spousal unit told him to sell some trains or some such…and he can now say, "Look it's on Ebay…"

And I bet you'd get the end decals on straight :)
