I used to be into kit cars in the 80s but was always lacking at least two of the three key ingredients: time, space, money. I'd have loved to create a tastefully crafted Nova.

I'm 6-4 built a cobra and extended the footwells. I also used block hugger headers and out the bottom exhaust. Worked fine. Most of these cars are for jockey-sized guys. With a little engineering we can get into these buggies.

That first car is what Stanley Kubrick should have used in 'A Clockwork Orange' as the Durango 95. The 1969 M-505 Adams Brothers Probe 16 was an absolute horror show, and I don't mean the good kind!

I wonder if any creative individual or company has come up with the idea of having a open top car, but with a fiberglass (or carbon) roof cleverly fitted to the inside or outside of the bonnet. So come some rain you can release your roof and yet not loose any asthetic design or usability of the bonnet.?

30 years ago at the show, the fake VW based 911 Covlin? looked almost identical to a 911 , the fake 356 Chisel speedster? also VW based looked identical , the Fake Lambo looked almost identical the V8 gave it away. The Fake Jaguar xj6 engine E type looked almost identical. These body kit cars are not so close. Cobras still look real but was already yawning at the number of Cobras in 93. I see the 356 that looks real is still there. Most of the good looking replicas were there 30 years ago and some that were there are missing. I think the kit car replica market must have stalled. I would not kennel my dog in many of the new body kit replicas,, that new bloated boxter based 356, someone must have been drunk at the time to buy that

I'd like to walk around those shows with a mullet wig, platforms and a cucumber down the front of tight strides! What's the point of having a Trabant dressed up to look like a Lagonda? The whole fake - snake thing does my head in, that one with "Cobra 427" decals all over it; NO, it's NOT ! The beech bugs have a nostalgic charm - I could do one of them with Subaru power, that'd be an honest kit car. The rest, with a few exceptions are just ridiculous.

@@dancarter482 Don't know why people want a falsified version of a real car or those who buy fake badges. Some of the original kit cars, like the Vaydor or the Manx, are cool projects, but I would never want one based on an existing model i.e. the fake "Cobras" or "GT3's." For instance, if you arrive somewhere (and it's not a kit car show) what do you say when people ask about your 'GT3'? Either you lie, or tell the truth, "Umm, it's not real, I bought a kit because I am a poser who can't afford the real deal." It's fine if you can't afford a $300 thousand dollar car, most of us can't, but it's a façade - like putting a false front on a trailer house and calling it a mansion.

@@mikefraley6935 Best I've seen was a "speedboat" built on a Reliant three wheeler. A totally honest mad machine that is so obviously _NOT_ what it appears to be. Sitting in traffic in a _FAKE_ car is like walking around in DRAG! Friends who've owned exotic cars always have conversations at the fuel stops with excited enthusiasts - my mate had a low-body Countach and was always getting accused of having a "Nice replica, Mate!" - because it doesn't have the silly wing. They were always surprised it was the real thing.

The only thing good about the Mustang EV is that now at the holiday Mustang get together the Mustang II will have a seat at the table, because there is the Mustang EV to be sitting out in the snow now. And that took 40 years.
