    This looks to be a nicely built and well done car. You could most likely not re-do it for $80K...not even counting the time to get the work done.

    However, the Singer is in another league...and it's price reflects that. It's a matter of what you want the most and what your wallet can afford.

    Picture below is my 911 Widebody project. Turned out great for much less dollars but a lot of work and time not counted because it's a hobby.

    Picture for illustration only. Widebody is not for sale.

    Figure out what you want and buy or build it. When it's done you will be happy. Don't settle for something "almost as good".

    The Singer will depreciate. A 911 at $500,00 will continue going up in price.

    Perhaps in the long term, but the couple of Singers I have seen trade hands have gone for over their purchase prices. People don't want to wait to have one built.
