250GT INSPIRED RAT KIT CAR

**PLEASE READ***

Hi, I am testing the appetite (no food offered with this sale) for my self built kit car affectionately known as "ghost" (more like casper). This is my second complete build (my first one was shite..just kidding..no i'm not) but I have been involved with kit car project design for 10 years and lended my design skills to a few kit car builders (funny they have since blocked me..not sure why) whose finished builds have been sold here on ebay (portfolio plagiarised from google available for viewing). I had originally intended to make this a track car (it was too much work) but changed my mind, the theme is MADMAX (on heroin) so has a gothic look. I have many videos of the car on motorway cruises I can send plus the car now has a rear aggressive racing spoiler (meh, well) which is not pictured I will add more pics of the interior this weekend. I have added pictures of an ebay listing for the fibreglass kit only to serve as an example of what the kits are worth, my kit cost 6 K plus shipping from the US( wouldnt do it again, order from the US i mean). I also have 3 other projects on the go (errr yeah, going) that take precedence (that need more cash) to this so I am willing to let this go at cost.

I am

not new to kit

car builds and I am well aware that its a time consuming and costly (very, emotional too, plus frustration and tantrums galore) hobby. I have around 11 k invested in (the wife wants a diviorce) this but accept that there is no return on investment with these projects and I know its basically a Madza MX-5 "dressed up" blah blah blah. The value of kit cars is subjective, what is it worth to you?!! I have had this car valued by kit car "experts" (pause) who have given me a 8 k-9 k in its current state and upwards of 10 k if it was in showroom condition(wasted money on those guys). PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not contact me to debate what you think it is worth!! (come round instead and we can trade insults in real time) thanks

I won't bore you with a comprehensive list of customisation and parts used (oh yess I will!! thats the best part) but happy to discuss this (some more)with serious buyers by ebay message or when you come to view but here are the good bits:

ONE-OFF DESIGN - variation of the F 250 GT kit but this is the only one with the non hatch-back rear(as far as I know)

INTERIOR

Mad max style interior with spikes in door cards, mint red and black leather seats Skull gear knob Removable racing steering wheel (great for access if you are plumpy cuddly) Skull decalls Fire Extingusher(the wife recommended I get one?!) Bespoke diamond pattern trim on doorcards, glovebox and instrument cluster dome (did it myself, was fed up with costs by this stage) Sound System with 600 watt amp, subwoofer and premium speakers (disconnected as I'm partially deaf now. No joke) Carbon fibre on dashboard fascia and handbrake lever Electric windows

DONOR CAR 2000 Reg 1840 cc engine (non turbo, non A/C, so what?) with induction kit and performance modification microchip Full service history and bills for all work carried out 93 000 kilometers on the odometer 2 Keys available (actually a bunch of keys..forgot what the others are for, could be keys for my other kit cars? I dont remember) E 5 Petrol only, not E 10 compatible (spoke to Boris, E 5 will not run out, you're ok)Not ULEZ compliant ( park up and ride a bike when in london, optional)

EXTERIOR

Custom built quad exhaust Custom front L.E.D fog lights & indicators Custom brake lights & L.E.D's Private registration number plate Custom-made deep dish chrome alloy wheels with candy red paint Custom smoked headlights Custom adjustable rear spoiler Custom bottom rear fin

Custom rear skull fog light Custom hood scoop Custom hood grafitti (I was too lazy to prep and paint plus wife was fed up with the noise from the sander..but people always comment that they love it so i kept it!)

ADVISORY (to complete the build if you so choose)

Body is painted in matte black primer which hides very minor imperfections, it would require further sanding and minor body work to be fit for professional paint job. It can be wrapped though...I have been quoted £980 Both windows are lazy but roll down fully (needs some spit or maybe grease in window mechanism) but they work ok Motorcycle style mirrors are a great look (but barely functional) you can see out of them but would benefit from bigger mirrors or re-positioned mirrors The donor car was originally a convertable (no, not a vegetable) , I have bonded a hard-top to act as a permanent roof but the place were the roof and the car meets is prone to small cracks but is fully secure. Might benefit with more fibreglass at that meet-point or flexi-plaster The candy red paint on the wheels is prone to peeling especially in this rainy season, I have a touch-up spray paint which will come with the car but could do with a few more layers and a good paint hardener to be perfect. Custom smoked headlights could be improved ( a bit shite, no they are not...yes they are), it looks ok but I would remove the tint spray and use a tint film instead, it would look better

I have a folder with all work and parts used for the build and I have missed out a lot of detail otherwise we will be here all year!

FINALLY

If you are new to kit cars please be advised ( insert condesending explanation here) that this design is inspired by another car, built on a donor car, it is basically mounted onto the chasis of the donor car, the only original Mazda MX-5 bits are the doors and internal infrastructer, unlike most in this kit range it is not pretending to be a well known supercar (I also have one of those hehehe) but can hold its own when parked next to some out there. I get loads of attention in this car, so be prepared to be stopped and asked "what is it?" and "oi, its only a f-in Madza mate" people wanting pictures all the time which can be tiring at best. I am 5 ft 10, (yesssss, tall squad, well... average squad) of muscular build (in the waist area) and fit quite comfortably in it......if you're over 6 foot (or the same height as a tree), I highly recomment that you come an view and sit in it (or buy a horse).

If you can't afford it (that was me 10 years ago, "it was all a dream") or if the style is not for you please kindly veto and look at something else. I am under no rush to sell and happy to keep it as its a weekend summer driver.

Please no timewasters and idiots but jokers are welcome :) ( no they are not)

I am not desperate to sell

but

will sell for the right offer (will sell anything I own for the right offer). The car is currently stored in Peterborough (much to me moms annoyance as its in her garage) for the winter and can be viewed there or in Luton.

Want to buy this car?
