| Re: History of all Viper models I personally know of three people who are building Classic Replica Vipers and two bodies needed to be cut in half so that when the body was fitted the wheels were in the middle of the arches, not to mention numerous other modifications needed to be made on the basic shape of the body especially the boot area. As for the quality of the fibreglass the painter was horrified and more by one of the cars which needed to be turned over and have more layers added as the body was too thin and weak .All the hinges, pedal box & gearbox mount needed to be replaced as they were made of monkey metal and totally unsuitable for the job they were made for. The chassis for one of these cars was meant to take a jag V12 which it could not and when this was explained to you on the phone all you could say was " well ours does " not very helpful to someone struggling at this point. I have helped my mate with one of these cars and personally would say yes they could be a good car once assembled but you need to do far more work fabricating, modifying and changing things for it to even fit together. We have also found now that the shocks and springs supplied by you were wrong and most have had to be replaced.
Personally I think your post should be regarded with great caution as I have heard many stories so beware any one reading this
