So are they just not assembled as well at Shelby in comparison to Kirkham?
When you say body and chassis, does this include all front and rear control arms, etc?
Because I struggle to believe it would be feasable for Shelby to buy a Kirkham Chassis then go and make there own control arms, uprights, hubs, diff assys etc when it is all available from Kirkham.
I had thought that Shelby bought what would basically be a rolling body/chassis combo from Kirkham, can anyone confirm that?
