A New Project? I REALLY need a new project?

I just wanted to utilize one of my Chevy small blocks languishing in the basement. So I started to hunt for kit cars. Simple, buy a kit car, build a high performance engine with the “Mark Touch”, toss ‘em together and VOILA! But what’s this? A GT40? No way. No one can build a GT40 kit car. Let’s check this out. Hmm, ERA GT40. But I couldn’t put a Chevy engine in this. But it’s an Eric Broadley creation. A Lola! I’ve coexisted with the Europa for 23 years and have loved Colin Chapman’s Formula Car for the road. But could I handle two cars that won LeMans? Hmm, any for sale on the Web? Oh, poor dude. Bankruptcy, and it’s gotta go now? Less than half the price of a similarly equipped 1999 model. As delivered. Still in boxes. I don’t need another project. NO! But it’s off to L.A.



Phew! Sure is bad. Well it could be. Needs a high torque engine.



Whoa! Damn, almost perfect.


It’ll be sweet after I’m done with it.


But I don’t need another project!
