I looked at them a couple years ago. If I remember correctly they come complete except for motor and trans? What are your plans for a powertrain?

If any of us can make it to San Antonio between now and when you get started on it, would you be willing to spin it 45 degrees and let us sit under it in a chair and make motor noises while looking out the front? Maybe if we bring a steering wheel, too... uh... you get the picture.

Andy, I poured over your build thread. Magnificent!

Your attention to detail, even on the slightest specifics, has yielded a fantastic vehicle. Outstanding job...please don't ever park yours next to mine!
