    Default Build a IA car?

    Well I'm bored and I was reading some threads on CH and found this.

    http://carolinahondas.com/showthread.php?t=62402

    Everyone donates like $5, so we could buy a shell. ANY car. (Honda?) Since I know alot of people have parts for them. People could donate some parts or some money for the parts. Put the car in a garage or somewhere, we could work on it. Get it running, someone get it painted or help on the bodywork etc. Then we could keep it as a track car, drag car etc. Or sell the car and get the USER CP fixed .

    Might be a stupid idea, I kinda like it lol. Anyone else up for it?

    I'm sure it could be done, and there are a lot of resourceful people on here. Just a matter of people having the time and money to give out. lol

    LOLOL math owns you motherfucker. 100 people need to donate $5 to get to 500 dollars.

    dumb idea, parts cost way too much, unless IA was based out of one shop like ClubRSX or something it wouldn't work

    Well, not to be funny, but if just one "popular" IA member was down to do this, the rest would certainly follow. No offense, but it's a mob-type mentality on this site. If the mob's with you, you're in business, they're against you, leave the site! LMAO...Vegeta

    We can have the members contribute $5 a month (if they can) to help roll the cost the build along. Not mentioning the parts I'm sure some people would donate.

    ^I never even thought of the $5 a month. I know alot of people would donate the money (its only $5) a month. We could finish it up in a few months. Like I said, Most likely could keep it in my backyard. Like EVERY saturday, people could come and work on the car for hours etc.

    But on a serious note, you can pick up a good foxbody shell for around the same price as a good Honda sell. Gut it, good suspension, and a nice mild motor would make for a fun/quick ride.

    Okay here are the plans if anyone really wants to do it.

    1. Get a shell (Guy already offered to donate a DA Integra shell)

    2. People donate ATLEAST $5 every month or whenever they can/want.

    3. People donate parts for the car.

    4. Leave the car @ a place where people can come and work on it and stuff.
    (My backyard) lol

    5. Step up like meetings (Ex. Saturday and sunday 12pm-6pm) and come and work on the car etc.
    6. Admin or Julio would be the owner of the car since they are the main/owner on here. Co owner etc lol.

    7. Make car drag car/track car or sell it and make some T shirts and give them to everyone that helped build it. and the rest of the cash goes towards IA.com

    I say run it a season or so, then sell it and put the money into the site. This shit isn't cheap to run I'm sure. The only problem will be finding one setup everyone on the board will support as they will all have a part in it. Some will want a hardcore drag setup, while someone else may want a hardcore autocross car.
