    I have also seen very nice Clones on Ebay for very reasonable Prices. It might be cheaper to buy one finished then to build one. Just a thought.

    What are you starting with? How complete is it?

    As stated, building a really, really accurate clone is expensive and time consuming EVEN if you do all the work yourself. If you are starting with no drivetrain and a standard interior you are looking at about $30K just in parts plus all of your labor.

    I know for a fact that really, really good 69 clone convertibles can be had for less than $50K. Something for you to think about.
