    money is not the problem man, i had a subvention to pay the half(engine+panel and aloy), then in 4 year of construction, i paid material piece per piece. at the end it is no more expensive than an economic car, that's why i drive with a 380 000 km peugeot. btw, i don't want to make jalous, i'm just happy to finished it and showing it is possible.

    I don't think you want me to be jealous..

    I drive a Benz w 310000km on it, and could still not afford that, sigh.

    I hope that you'll keep posting with progress and so on.

    I can't say WTG again, it would be silly so... Great work, tigrou!
