I spoke with Edgar w/Year one a couple of months ago about them. I thought they would "start" around 60K and I was seriously going to do whatever necessary to get one.But all that changed when Edgar informed me they "started" at $159,900. Yeah, No Thanks.

Who in their right mind would pay six figures for a late seventies T/A? I don't care how much you do it, you'd still have to be completely out of your mind. I'm sure you could built your own for less than half that. 1500 hours at a generous $20.00 per hour (for which I'm sure you could hire a guy for a YEAR to built you one) comes out to $30k, leaving, oh $80k plus for parts, and $4k for the car. What a dumb car once you figure the price.
