Perhaps you could think of non-traditional markets to sell your books to.
Maybe advertising the book in some engineering magazines?
Or how about getting the prototype car on a tour for display in art or science museums around the country where they would sell copies of the book in the museum gift shops? Maybe that is thinking too far outside of the box...

I am looking for a less expensive way to publish the book. Of course, there isn't anything less expensive than publishing it on the web. I do realize, however, many people (me included) like to have the actual book in their hands.
As for thinking out of the box, keep the ideas coming!

You might contact David Bull at David Bull Publishing in Arizona. His company publishes high end, large format motorsports books that are very well done. He's also a very nice guy and very hands on.

I have thought about David Bull Publishing. We poured over his Ferrari F1 book to get ideas for this car. Chris had it with him during the design phase. It is an incredible book.

Darren,
Yes, all of the special parts are available for sale. We keep updating our cars as time goes one. We are now delivering our cars with CV axles which is a direct "tickle down" from this project.

I don't suppose you have an upgrade list with prices available to the public yet?
