My brother-in-law is in Czech republic and asked my wife to task me with finding him a completed kit car that is either a Shelby Daytona coupe or a GT-40. His requirements are the following:

Has to be $60k or under
Has to be a V8
Has to look as original as possible. I assume this means old style wheels, 4 speed, and an old Ford carburetor motor
Preferably registered as an 87 or earlier

I do not follow kit cars at all and do not know where to begin. Did they even make kits that are registered before 87? Are they any good? If anyone can steer me in the right direction, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I'd say Ebay.. Factory five Racing price wise.. Superperformance and Shelby CSX ones are a $100k+
 
I'm actually looking for a Daytona Coupe or GT-40, so a Cobra roadster is out. I registered on the board of a local car club and will try to go from there.
