In the true sense of the definition was the original considered a Kit car? AC Bristol body, Ford engine and Jaguar brakes or suspension.
According to way I have seen the law written in several states (and hopefully my understanding is correct), ALL of our wonderful rides are defined as "Kit Cars" or "Specially Constructed Vehicles" Kirkham, Shelby, FFR, ERA, Superformance, the tax man and the state consider them all the same.

Ultimately, it really doesn't matter what we banter about here on the site. The state where you register your Chariot of Fire is--by definition--going to tell you what it is.
