[quote=JWilly;1130642]I bought a CSX 6000 continuation car from Eric. He built the engine and did the complete installation. /QUOTE]

Unrelated to this issue, but what you descibe here is a violation of Federal law. A dealer who sells the chassis CANNOT sell nor install the powertrain. That constitutes a "vehicle" rather than a "component" and makes the complete vehicle subject to all current Federal regulations. Do you want a "Cobra" with airbags, bouncey bumpers and OBD II??????

We regularly lose sales to customers who want a "turn key" car. A chassis supplier can't do it legally. We will not violate the law for a sale. I have no idea if PE does or did so, but those who do will eventually be found out. Especially when one gets caught and blows all of the others in to gain points with the prosecution.

This industry has enough problems without inviting the Feds to "look closer".
