Nope, the Honda Civic is gonna get pilfered for the engine, transmission, suspension components, steering rack, maybe seats for now... that's about it. I'm gonna scrap the rest of the car, which is kind of a shame because the body is in excellent shape. Not too big of a market for a 4-door DX shell though. (trust me, I checked.) I'm basically building a vehicle to defeat the mighty Ariel Atom, but for about $40,000 less than the Atom's base price of $49,500 American. So seamless tube steel chassis custom built by yours truly, motor and tranny by Honda, and suspension by Bilstein most likely. After that... sky would be the limit if the purse wasn't. It's gonna be Frankenstein as all heck, but with proper steps taken along the way to keep it professional enough to sell, I should be able to open a market for it.
