Hey David,

I may be going against the trend here, but I think there are a lot of people who would buy your cars if they were more affordable. Letting the buyer do more of the assembly work is one way to cut the cost.

It's a question of skill level. Most home garage mechanics willing to attempt to assemble one of your cars can most likely learn to drill a hole pattern and install a few rivets. Straightening and filling that aluminum body is a different story. Form the panels and show where to drill. Give the guy with more time than money a chance to own one to your great cars!

Plus the guy willing to do the work himself will probably do a good job, so I don't really understand the concern about quality.

Keep your cars as original as possible. That’s one of the things that make them so attractive.
