This is advantageous for those concerned about the integrity of any vehicle cut lengthwise, along with the multiple lines and wires that also have to be stretched. This car eliminates those concerns and simply has the top removed (like a roofless Jeep) and the thick fiberglass body is bolted on (you can have framing/roll cage made if you desire that). There is still much that needs to be done, since only simple hardware store hinges and supports were used (along with the base car door latches). It does not have the key door locks, hood/trunk/hatch locks or stereo system (I will include the donor door locks unattached and other usable items like wipers, inner rear view mirror, etc.). The car's A/C needs servicing. The four wheel caps are included but two attaching bolts are missing. The gas fill can be moved accordingly, since currently it needs included piping to fill up the tank. It could use new lowering springs since the current ones have been heated/cut. There are no door shocks (a fixed rod holds the doors up) and the front seatbelt posts should be professionally rewelded. The interior is completely stock with cracked dash, so you may want to cover or completely redo it. There are no gaskets installed and the plexiglass side windows do not go down. A partition can be made to hide the three rear child seats (those outer two seatbelts need to be completed/attached) or they can be removed, and a fake engine can be placed there (if you install a speaker system, it can simulate the exotic engine noise, expecially if it is controlled with android/iphone GPS app). The car is a basic 15 footer - It looks like a million bucks from 15 feet or more, but when you get up closer, you can see the deficiencies/wrinkles/bubbles/etc. in the gold chrome and body work. I will include plenty of gold chrome material (about about double of what was used in the pics) to completely redo parts of the vehicle (or the whole thing if you are going to get the bodywork all straightened up) and also plenty of faux carbon fiber vinyl. This car, in its current state, is for entertainment purposes only - you could probably win some trophies at some local car shows (I will include some effects lighting that can be placed behind the grill/acrylic sections), and get plenty of attention where ever you go, even in your garage! A company can use it for advertising (you will get a whole lot of people stopping by!). Even a raffle will bring in a lot of money! But if you want to make it a high performance machine, you will need to completely overhaul the frame, suspension, body, and engine (an SRT-4 Engine would give you from 240 hp to 500 hp with mods). As you can see, this car is far from complete, but it is running and driving, and it looks ... well, just look at it!!!

Actually appears to be fairly well built, at least where it is now.

Crazy how much that looks like a Murcielago, but vinyl wrap can hide an awful lot of sins, especially in photos.

"like a roofless Jeep" is some kind of selling point? The full-frame Jeep was designed not to have a roof, the unibody Neon was not.

That car looks like a older copy of the IFG splash molds that were out in the wild. So yeah the wrap hides a whole lot of crap, 200-300 hours of bodywork under that wrap to get to paint.
