Remembering that dynos are not all the same,
about the closest car that comes to this power
with VW heads (not CB 044s)
is Rod richardsons 48IDA car.
But this car is with berg5, so is also very practical!

Roger sent me these details:

Hi Dave,
list of thing done.
There is more but what the hay, Big Roger

Wow. Sorry Rodge, sounds a bit much for me. Maybe the BRM's are og? Anyone tell, there is a nice closeup.

I think the wheels would be repro Matt. They look a bit too shiny to me and it would be the first thing mentioned in the desciption if they were OG BRM's.

$40 000 does seem like alot but Its built by some of the best around and hopefully well sorted car that someone with the money can just buy and enjoy straight away and just do maintenance. As Dave said you could not build it for that much.

I've seen a lot of people build cars with that sort of money spent on them but they are not as good as that car with not as good resale value and spent alot of time doing it. On the other hand (As I'm sure Matt was thinking) I bet you could pick up a very good car in the US for half that price as well.

I don't have that sort of money so like most of us I have to piece together a car the best way I know how. 🥲

Yep, Burrelli is onto it. I've been involved with two import cars recently that have been absolutely outrageous and at a quality of build that is rarely seen. I've also built some of this country's best in their day, so feel relatively qualified to judge a good car. I am also involved in a car that has a pedigree equal to this car that is currently going through the importation process and it had been purchased very recently for a lot less than what we are talking here, hence my comment, IMO it is a bit exxy. Bloody nice car though, and certainly well below replacement cost in either country.
