I want it. I want it now.

40k!!!!! For an elco!!!!! No.

He said "less than" 40k.

I'd find a Chevy SS that had been rear ended and use that for a donor car. Then get a VF Ute back-half.

I guess it’s cool in its own way but you can say the same for a fixed up Baja or a newer turbo diesel Gladiator as well.

I'd rock the hell out of one. Love them.

They are cool but there are a lot of other 2 seat cars I'd buy for 40k before those.

Want. Want badly.

Don’t get me wrong, I would love to drive one. But an 09 that’s prob 38k...,owch.

I feel like it could be done a lot cheaper if you didn't pay a shop. But I don't have a place where I can split two cars in half, so it's really just daydreaming at this point.

I'm not splitting a unibody car in half in my garage and then reassembling it myself ever lol

I'd try it if I could get it cheap

What is the cost of shipping a car over anyways?


Coop

I think it would just be the cost of a 20 foot container. You fill it with whatever you want. As long as customs doesn't give you a hard time, it should be easy. I don't think they'd care too much about a stripped body with no interior or drivetrain.

Just need to wrap up the Mighty Max and you should be good to go.

From when I used to do international sea shipping a 20' container runs around $2000. That was from Baltimore port to Chile. I am sure going to/from Australia will be more,then you have the cost of getting the container to the shipping port, and the cost of getting from the destination port to a shipping location.

The way to make it cost less is to get someone to partner with you and fill the container with things they need.

Exactly. It wouldn't make sense to put one car body in it and shoulder the cost yourself. You'd need to work with a shop or something to bring over a lot of stuff.

I raise you.

That looks like a shitstorm.

That's dumb. At least it's just a render.
