    Default Bradley GT kit car?

    I know where I can get a body for one of these Bradley GT kit cars for dirt cheap. Does anyone know anything about these other than it goes on a VW pan? Like where to get parts, any history, anything? I can't really find much info just some pics.

    Looks like fun. I'm sure there's some auto-enthusiast forum out there similar to honda-tech, toyotanation, vwvortex, etc...

    Parts may depend on the motor. I can't say I'm familiar with the car, but alot of cars like that used engines from other makers. IE the DeTomaso Pantera was made by DeTomaso, but employed the Ford 351cleveland motor.

    Best of luck!

    It goes on a VW Bettle pan, so parts for that isn't an issue but it is missing things like the gull wing doors and I'm sure other misc stuff like that.

    Ouch...again probably enthusiast sites? model-specific? That is a hard one...

    I'd pick up the project. May take years to complete, but in the end it'll be worth it.

    BTW, after I posted my reply I realized who the OP was. Dude, you're NEVER satisfied with a project, are you. You're always onto something "bigger and better," lol

    The only site I found my computer warned me was full of malware so thats a no go for that site.

    No, I'm really not. I get bored easy with the same old same old. The Tacoma is the longest Ive ever kept a car other than my Silverado. Only reason for keeping it is because Ive yet to get bored with it because it is very fun to drive. This would keep my interest long enough to at least finish it.

    If I can to get rid of the payment I will but I don't want to. Its the first payment Ive ever had to and it sucks. Costing to much a month with insurance and everything.

    I'm dropping (insurance included) about 500/mo. More car than I should have gotten for my first finance with military pay. Don't get me wrong, I love it, and I deal with the payments because of the joy I get from it...but it's an expensive joy.

    It is, I pay about $650 a month total. I love the truck but to go from $650 a month to under $100 I'd be happy driving my Mercedes or the Volvo I'm picking up soon.
