Okay, I know many on this site are Cobra/Ford only fans... but how about an aluminum Lola T70 replica?...
Or.... a Scarab of Lance Reventlow fame?
Or how about marketing aluminum front fenders for the factory lightweight cars of the 60's... 63 chevy fenders for a Z-11 repop, and 63 Catalina fenders for the a SD 421 clone? Did the Galaxies and SuperStock Dodges have aluminum fenders as well? Lots of possibillities!!!

How is routine maintenance handled? What happens in case of minor fender-benders? What if there is minor frame damage? Does it have to be shipped back to Utah? Or did the price include all the CAD/CAM files for local machinists to work from? How is it licensed in California? What kind of warranty came with it? Does the price include inspection and bolt-tightening after x-miles or x-months, whichever comes first?

Would you want to trust your local machinist to make some of these parts? Or wouldn't you prefer to just get replacement parts from the source? If you damaged suspension pieces on a Shelby CSX 4000, wouldn't you call up Shelby or your Shelby dealer to get replacement parts?
How would licensing this Kirkham in CA be any different than for any other Kirkham? |

Sorry for the delay in answering guys.
Minor fender bender--no big deal. We handle them all the time.
Frame damage--no bid deal. We have all the parts programmed into the CNC and they can be made.

Thanks for the kind words. An aluminum Fastback would be a dream--no doubt. So many cool projects, but so little time to do everything. There are just too many other projects in the works right now.
