Unbelievable

The original concept sketch from a few months back. Dash internals ended up being more complex.

Ouch 20k, here is one for sale here i NC. Not as nice as the one in Canada, but it has potential.

That is an XTC kit - a little different than a F40

Haha.. Just a little.. Did he just read the description and not look at the car..

That F40 kit that you posted from Canada is realy something.. Its very close to the real deal..

Oh.. And your dash is incredible, just as to be expected from Rob.. Awesome.. And another thing.. DONT PAINT IT BLACK.. There is a reason "Pain" is in that sentence, pain to keep clean.. Every chip, scuff, scratch, swirl, bug, and piece of dust is visible.. I owned a black Porshe for 11 years and will never own another black exotic car.. I cringe thinking about washing and dusting the car every time I wanted to take it out and when I got where I was going the car was dirty from the drive.. A clean black car looks great, but are not great to own my friend..

That's nice looking one, it looks to have a longer wheelbase & different windshield. Nice looking dash too.

I think this dash weighs around 20-25 lbs. Gauges should weigh another 3-5 lbs. or so.

FED EX dropped off the most amazing piece of work I have EVER seen! Hats off to Rob "AMIDA" for what is truly a piece of art. Amazing craftmanship, I can't get over it - also it was packed so well he could have put in a dozen eggs and none off them would have broke.
