I was told by my supplier that the military has taken priority on the supply.

Re: DC Please build a street version or anyone please build a kit for me!!!
So if every panel is changed except the hood and doors then what will the rear end of the car look like, SRT Coupe, SRT convertible or Comp Coupe? In my view that is the most important thing. The front looks great, wide rear is great, but if it does not look somewhat like the comp coupe I woulld not be that excited. It would NOT have to be as elongated and it would NOT have to have the fins so close to the ground but the taillight configuration and rear suround should look like the CC in my hmble opinion. Any hope for that Jeff?

It is based on the production coupe. Even though it is unfinished at this point, it is my favorite part of the car. It looks great in WIDE form on a vert.

So it looks like an SRT coupe? Why not make it look like the comp coupe?

Re: DC Please build a street version or anyone please build a kit for me!!!
Mostly personal preference. The CC is much too long and the street coupe keeps the car tight and short. The integrated spoiler is much more pronounced on the vert and the tight wrap into the quarters is bold. The whole package is quite wild which is probably why it is controversial.
I went through dozens of photo's with people who's opinion on car design I very much trust and there was no debate on which was the way to go. We all agreed the SRT rear was the best choice.

Jeff, looks GREAT so far!
Keep it up!
I don't want to go back and re-read all the posts, but will a HOOD be included in the kit?

The side sills look pretty good! Are you going to make them with carbon, kevlar or fiberglass?
What about the rear quarters & front fenders, are you going to make these out of a composite? The stock plastic fenders and quarter panels are made of crap. Carbon or fiberglass replacements would be nice.

The car being built is made of regular fiberglass and weighs in the same as stock. Carbon Fiber has become very difficult to get but there is a real good alternative that is very light weight and strong. This should be a great option but I don't have all the details yet.

So if one had a vert and actually preferred the look of the rear of the SRT convertible would they be able to widen it front and back and keep the vert rear or would they have to switch to the coupe srt rear? I'm having trouble visualizing the vert with the coupe rear, although I think Austin did a photoshop once.

It looks FANTASTIC. The standard vert is quite the bore by comparison. Keep in mind the car is widened so front and back need to be done for balance. The big shoulders give the car a very serious, menacing look.

Glad to hear it, looking forward to seeing the whole package and you are to be congratulated for stepping up to do this. Big investment in time and money I'm sure.

It is. The positive reaction so far is making me feel more confident about getting my money back. If it fails at least I get to drive around in what I think is a cool car. The rear end looks great and I am looking forward to showing the whole package.
