I wonder what he has into that car. On his IG page he claimed the wheels were $12K alone.
I'm amazed it's at $65K so far for basically an unknown mileage SSP car with a decent drivetrain and suspension. I would think if the car wasn't so famous, it would be a $25K car tops. The engine combo isn't even anything that crazy.
Half of it is going to charity though.Here's his build sheet on wheelwell.com

It's a well thought out car, but not worth $65K IMO. My build is basically be an "extreme" version of what he built, and I'm budgeting around 35-40K (though I am doing all the work myself which obviously saves quit a bit). He's making money off that car at $65K.

And from what I know about it, a lot of shops have put a LOT of time in it. Id bet he has more labor $$$ in it that we can even guess about.
True.Write off.
That's assuming he paid all those shops also. I can almost guarantee some of those shops donated time/parts if he mentioned their name (which he did quite a bit). I'm sure there is plenty of money in labor, but his build really wasn't anything out of the ordinary to require tons of development/research.
Oh the benefits of being famous.
True.
Seriously though, what does he do? I know he has a blog or something, but I think I'm missing the bigger picture.
