Reply to "White Australian Pantera ?"

I believe that the car was build for around 400K. But that was in 1985. But now we know what to do and what not. I can design a tublar frame on my home computer in Solidworks. I can simulate all the forces acting on the car. By now we know the right geometry for the suspension etc.
There after I hook my computer up to a CNC bending machine, and up with an airfix box of tubing ready to weld. It will be a sure fit. Sorry but this is 2012 Technology available for everyone.

By now we know how to build an engine. The day's of trial and error are mostly gone. Also the materials you need to make molds are widely available for less and less money. Also the quality and handling of those materials are easyer and more effective then in 1985.

It will not be easy, but it must be possible to make a simular car for 100K if you know the way around.

But that was not my point. I hope for him he sell the car for 550K. My question was, would it be possible to build a Pantera more worth then a factory race car. We all invest so much money in old cars without race history. Is there a way to restore or build a Pantera making money at the end?
