And prices are pretty good on the VH45 - esp. as they are no more than 6 years old. Not much more than the VH41, usually! How fat are they?

heh - its a kit car ..
The guy is a member of my friend in NZ's kit car club 
The car itself is WAY over engineered with bracing, according to others in the club
Nice machine though - it looks pretty

I think everything was fabricated by the owner. he made everything. even the suspension arms are similar to the real parts. ie Aluminium. Its a DEAD SEXY car! Where is the page that you got this from. I think all the literature he wrote on the build goes for ages.
