I will post my pictures of the body later when I can get them uploaded onto my computer, but my impression the unit is crap for the price you are paying. The welds looked sloppy the panel fitment sucked (not just the bolt on doors and decklid, but the rocker to quarter and quarter to dutchman panels). For $17,500 I would buy a car and do the work myself. I would say that if you bought this and then sent it to a body shop to finish the bodywork prior to paint you would spend another $10,000 in body work and then you still have paint. So you will have almost $30k into this body before paint and still need to spend a ton more money on the project.

As promised here are the pictures I took. I'm glad they made the body, but really if you are going to make it, do it right, especially for $17k!

Notice that it does say prototype on the roof of that shell.  I'm sure they will have some bugs to work out if this is the first attempt.   :dunno:

Why would anyone want to buy a classic car with no history?

Yes it does say prototype on the roof, but this is typical of their quality of craftsmanship (if you can call it that) from what I have seen in the past.
