I agree that a complete kit would be reasonable for 14.000, however COMPLETE is what would be reasonable. other kits like the hawk stratos are in the region of this amount, and their quality has nothing to do with what classic replicas is making.

Regarding the stiffness of the chassis, I don´t think Gordon had it in mind when modifying the Deon chassis, which again reveals the way he runs his business. I guess that the internal appereance of the car closer to the original Dino was the only thing he wanted to get.

There´s a posibility, however, to anybody who has this modified Deon chassis to increase the stiffness by making the fiberglass monocoque bodyshell stiffer, with an internal structure like a roll cage which reinforces some of the critical points of stress, as the original car. This is also better in a GT than in a GTS of course, because the first one has a roof...
