I’m partial to the widebody look on darker wheels.

Kinja'd!!!

Kinja'd!!!

Although I’d add a front splitter and air dam becau se they could suffer from some minor nose lift at high speeds with the original nose. If I own a Daytona, then I’m entering it in crazy events like the Silver State Classic.

If I ever get around to building a kit car, it will b e a Shelby Daytona replica. Needs knockoff wheels, though. Even if they're knockoff knockoffs...

Ah, yes, the pukey Saab. Good times, good times. We should  do something like that again. Maybe a group trip to the Larz Anderson museum?

I completely agree. To bad it's out of my price range.

Yes yes yes. Go no bigger than 16" wheels, and huge white lettering. It completes the look.

LSx swap, because it's superior in every way...

Wasn’t completely sold on #15, but #22 looks better to my eyes (if you have to change the lines of the original).

Not trying to be a hater, but it looks like they lopped off the tail.

I’ve seen a replica like this in person (not sure if this company’s or another), it wa s close enough that I’d never know any differences, visually. That sounds fantastic, to me.

Ive always like these too, due to quirkiness of what Bill Thomas came up with and it kinda being the Chevy response even with their AMA racing ban.

tail is still there, its just....... stumpy.

it looks a LOT like they just cut off the tail......

Kinja'd!!!

Kinja'd!!!

but i like the cheetah, in a “ hatchback version” kind of way. its all to the point. like how the old austin bantam coupe was a shorty version of a ford sedan

Kinja'd!!!

Kinja'd!!!

its got some nice proportions

Kinja'd!!!

like a clownshoe........

The $12k kit is a car short of being a car. It will cost you a minimum of $30k to build it halfway decent, and $45k minimum to do it right, and that’s with you doing all the labor.

I have a mechanic I trust who will put used parts on (or parts I bring him), and is way cheaper than he ought to be. I’ve often mused about giving him bigger projects, and now I’m trying to work out in my head how much it would run me to have him (or rather, the mechanics who do most of the work at his shop these days) do the installation on a project like this.

Can't decide if I'd want it to be streetable or not. I rather think I would, which would necessitate some of that stuff being removable (as well as a less aggressive roll cage).

Apparently it can? I'm not sure I believe them, but it says on the website that it can.

50/50. I it will probably be a last minute decision. I don’ t even know what i’m doing this weekend . I may be in Falmouth this weekend . A guy wants to add a third g arage on his house.

With a tube frame chassis designed to be modular and fit damn n ear whatever, it can.

Like Bman76, I think it would cost me a lot more than $1 2k. I was figuring $50k for a complete build. Even at the $30k figure, I have trouble .

My personal preference would be lv4 (v6 using ls architecture) built out as close to a ls7 as possible. I like the sound of the V6, and I have a not so secret dream of making a 250GTO kit car. Closest I'd likely ever come...
