No with in a grand of getting it done still working on it tho. I thought the Bugatti was real as well until he pulled in and parked. He reved it up and I noticed the throttle bodies never moved. Then I felt the motor and it was ice cold. His nephew was with him in the Viper. He's the one who verified it was a kit said it was built out of a GTO and he had 200k in it making it look real. He said his uncle could afford a real one but wanted one he could drive and not worry about. Said he owned a Ford GT and a Lambo and Ferrari and about 10 other exotics. I'll post some pics I took.

x2 - great concept but the execution wasn't quite there yet. Lots of little details that he overlooked/hasn't finished yet.

Paint was maybe a 7 out of 10. Door jambs were visible with doors closed and looked pretty rough. Lack of attention on tape lines and such. A few fisheyes and also some suspect spots of bondo that were bubbling slightly.

The rear engine cover was very nice. The LS motor being visible through the gap between the hood and the cowl, not so much.

I ran the vin while standing and looking at it and it was an 06 GTO chassis.

However, with that being said, what a fun car to have! Could drive anywhere and not worry about trashing a high dollar car, and still get the looks and attention that a car like that would bring.

We passed the green lambo on wears valley road a time or two, awesome car.
