    I posted a picture of a car I just bought the other day but the problem is I have know idea what it is. The only thing that I know about this car is that it is a Fiber glass kit car on a VW chassis. I realize this is a Maverick Forum but you are all car guys with years of expereance so I figure someone might know what it is. If anyone could shed some light on this I would be very happy.:dancing:

    How big a motor can you fit in that thing? I bet that would be fun after it is assembled, even with a smallblock!

    I was told before it might be a Bradley GT but I can't find any that look like this on.I have also been told it might a Ferrari Dimo kit to. :cry: I have searched all over the net and have had know luck finding one the same. I can find things that have a close front end ,and rear end but not on the same car. I figure what ever it is it will be done in the spring of 2009. I have to finish the Porsche 914 i bought the same weekend as the kit car.

    Nope, doesnt look like a Bradley GT or a Bradley GT II

    Went thru quite a few of the pages on that site before i quit looking.

    Does the person you bought it from not know what it is?

    It is on a Karmen gia chassis so I will more than likely just put a VW motor in it. I think if I put a small block in it, it would more than likely end up being a wheel stander because the motor is mounted in the back and the car in very light.
