The most valuable Speedsters are selling for $400k because they have all matching numbers. I expect some of the total rust bucket Speedsters, will be rebodied with these bodies, but they'll never have "Matching numbers" so they'll only affect the middle level market. I expect some coupes and cabs will have their serial numbers stamped on some of these bodies too. One day all 6000 of the original 4000 Speedsters will have been restored.
I once saw an argument between the owner of Restoration Design and a collector on original parts.
