Mr. Bruce - Opportunity knocks!
 
Find an "angel" or three and you can own the legacy outright.

Cheetah again joins ranks of the deceased at Hemmings Blog: Classic and collectible cars and parts


Quote:

...If you think the prospect sounds viable, you can pick up the whole works – a couple of complete bodies and tooling to make more, chassis jigs, various parts and the rights to the design and name, though it does appear that Bill Thomas only authorized a limited number of continuation cars (the auction mentions that “67 letters” remain from Thomas). The online auction opened at $120,000, but ended without a single bid. The fate of the Cheetah’s future hangs in the balance

I love the car!
I was at the PHX facility and was given a tour of their works. A true replica of the original car. They had one original there as the model.
If I only had the money!

I simply refuse to believe 220MPH-anywhere-in the form seen here. 180 would shock me.

Do you have anything resembling a business plan, or is this a labor of love?

Given past success with these, is a business plan really any advantage?
