I'm sorry. I knew this would start something. Just because something
can be built cheaper doesn't mean I have the time to do it. I can
build a Mark - 8 easier then a Rolls Royce.
Again, sorry I said anything

In many cases, it
would cost less to build everything "original" today. An original
Silver Ghost Rolls Royce, the most valuable collector car in existance
at $50 million, could easily be built today from the original plans,
by hand just as the original, for about $50,000. How much would you
give me? I'll get started today if you say $49 million. ;-)
