One of my other toys is a Factory Five Cobra roadster that I built myself. Fiberglass body over a steel and aluminum chassis, not unlike a Corvette. Did everything myself except the paint job, which was in fact $10K. And that was without the painted stripes that are de rigueur for Cobra replicas and after I had trimmed and fitted the doors, hood, and trunklid, which are significant portions of the body prep.

But I guess I can't complain, because the car was finished in 2014 and 5 years later still looked good enough to get first place at our employee car show last December...
