Practicality, size, rego, weight and cost all factored in to my decision.
I paid about $5K for brand new L76, loom and ECU. That affordability made my plan to build a real possibility.
I lamented similar feelings about running a cheb to a local guy here before I purchased an engine, his response was "Paint it blue, shut the bonnet and just drive it, who's gonna care."
At the end of it all I'll just be happy to have built a car the looks not unlike an AC Cobra, sounds nice, cheap to run, goes as quick as Kevin and delivers 100 smiles per hour.
