Hi Jase,

The $78K is for a turnkey car, complete drive it home.

The $22K gets you a rolling car ie all suspension, steering and brakes fitted. Doors, bonnet and boot lid hung. You still have to find an engine, transmission, fuel system, ECU, wiring, lights, widscreen, paint, interior, Wheels and tyres, Engineers report, rego etc.. (Have I forgotten anything?)

Ian also does a basic bare body and chassis kit for about $11.5K inc GST. It comes with the body fitted to the chassis and all the panels hung. You have to source your suspension, brakes, steering etc. This is the kit I went for. I enjoy the building and tinkering with the whole thing so this kit suited me to a T.

Have a look in my gallery and Boxheads gallery as we both started this way and haved been taking pictures all along.

Cheers
Mike,

Thats what I thought was the case, but after looking at some of the photos is yours and a few others galleries, I got the impression that you could just buy the chassis/body, and any other parts you chose.

Is there an option to purchase a complete complete turnkey car unassembled? Although already looking through some of the threads here, I know that I don't want all the parts that are supplied. What I might do is purchase the body and chassis - my only question there is if Ian will sell suspension, brakes etc seperately.

Thanks for taking the time to answer some of the first of many questions that I'm sure to be asking over the next few years!
