Talk me down off the ledge! Why shouldn't I buy this!

I can't post a link but there is a 1977 Ferrari 308 GTB rolling chassis on eBay right now with no reserve starting at $4000 with no bids. The drive train and interior have been removed so it is a stripped down rolling shell (seems to come with OEM wheels, however). Here is a pic...



This car is calling to me and saying "Track car...light weight track car..."

So why shouldn't I buy this chassis, have it delivered to my home and then add the bare minimum to get it on the track? Motor, transmission, seat...lexan windows...roll cage...fire extinguisher...

I already have two splendid Porsches. So it's not like having a long term project car is going to deprive me of driving joy. In fact, it may distract me from performing ill-advised and unlikely "mods" to my p-cars.

So stop me before I bid. Why is this a bad idea??? It is calling me...I can't turn away...the siren song is toooo strooong...
