She worked to get the car running and built a racer body... Shortly after getting her driver's license, she started to drive her T racer to school.
This fall at the Ogunquit beach auto show she took the peoples choice award of 2nd place out of 245 cars in attendance
That Speedster really woul notd be that expensive to build. I have given thought to those types of cars including my Roadster and one other car I will help my neighbor build in the near future. Guess we'll just have to wait and see.
ReplyDeleteI'll say it's about 10 to 20k, without paint. That's tires, bearings, brake system, engine, trans, rear and front suspension, steering, tires, fuel and brake systems, wiring and lights. I've probably forgot some stuff... instruments, seats, etc. That's with the cheap rims, and not the cool wood ones.
DeleteI think that puts it right into used car territory like I stated, " as expensive to make one as it is to buy a weatherproof commuter with AC, air bags, and anti lock brakes"
