Saw this on another forum and thought you would like it, a bloke builds his own zonda lookalike. Started with scrap granada and a bunch of CDS steel, smashed up good parts with incompetance, wasted thousands shipping it forwards and backwards to Bahrain, reckons it's cost him at least 15 grand so far. This guy's talent is remarkable.
wow. you really have good skills. nice job nick!!
Interior trimming 
Nice door gaps 
Drainpipe used as pods 
Ready for paint? 
Wish bones 
In his own words... ummm yes, I had to make loads of these(suspension arms) before I got it right
 the 1st few kind of broke frown Its been together for a while now and so far so good. The 1st wish bones snapped when i took it out for a spin, fortunately the car hasn't far to drop
I should add that i used a gasless mig for a while so it looks a great deal worse than when its all scrubbed down.. I used a locost kitcar jig in the end and all was good! And a couple of YouTube videos https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHh-g__UsRk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rz6t4j7l1mc&feature=youtu.be |

No need for an SVA though
As for the SVA, I think there is enough Scorpio in the car to simply put the old plates on!
I reported the Scorpio as having an engine swap, its no longer a 3.0 but a 5.3l, all I have to do is lose 2 doors and change the colour and I should be home and dry |
