that may be just what I was looking for. I have a frame to drop it on.I have been looking for a great shell, minus running gear, Timing Sucks but The Vette is no longer Challenge fodder, it will be a driver and that required a few more bucks than challenge money,this frame I have has an MG Spec(sorta)front end so maybe I can call it a Fridget(ford in a Midget),and $499 really fits budget. The thought of making a Giant Locust came on but faded quickly. I am in N.Ga. so close enough!

How close? I'm getting hungry. When is this event you are going to(200) we may need to talk . also if you need to sell quick then go ahead,but a 2017 car can work for me.I got lots of stuff for sale so I can get up the money. swap meet at Commerce was yesterday(once a month)so I need to put an add on Craigs list. The Vette IS Gettin' Wicked.but Horse power costs.

But I got up to $20.00 already. OK I was checking out midgets and they only have an 80" wheel base. the cobra is 90" so I be looking still. Almost anything will be considered (no japanese)wish I still had my MGB-GT but it was nice and would be hard to cut up.
