Worth just admiring the pictures.

At first I thought the price was too high,  then I thought about what it would cost to build one this well...

Bad. Ass.

Consider: it was running wheel to wheel in The 24 with a race-prepped Ferrari Daytona driven by real Pro Drivers. The entire drivetrain is essentially a '70s Formula Atlantic unit. IRRC, the one we ran in our March 74 dyno'd at 200+ ponies. I could be wrong though.

Bad. Ass.

Wow. 
 

I wasn't able to view the pics on apexspeed but did find some by following the link to race car locator:
