With the value of these cars soaring and now reaching collector status, it makes sense to me that people want to build their cars true to the original formula.
I don?t think there is any truth to the value of S-chassis? soaring. They saw a bit of a bump during the pandemic but that was an anomaly.

The only documented sales we have are on auction sites like BaT where they rarely exceed $15k for the cleanest of clean examples.

Be it engine prices or entire car prices, people see these asking prices and conflate them with what the sale price is or its true market value.
