Bruce, if people could get a chassis from FFR without the body I think you'd have more success moving them. And if that chassis already came with the mods for the 289 tank it would help even more. I suspect much of the problem is you have guys with painted cars that are looking at buying a second body and paying for paint again, plus making mods to the chassis for the tank which creates an unknown for people. That also creates lot of explaining to do at resale time versus a kit that was that way from the start. If you had pictures of complete cars along with detailed pictures of the chassis mods required it may help people get comfortable with the idea and consider it viable. All of this is probably obvious to you but maybe not to the customer. Show lots of pictures, a detailed list of what's involved from a fabrication standpoint, and a list of costs. Remove the doubt and unknown and you'll have a better chance of selling them.
