Yeah, I did, but that was after I built it...I didnt buy one already done only to pull it apart and put it into a defected shell?...Seems slightly ass about face and a hell of a lot of work to me...regardless, its your choice but that is a very nice car you could just drive and enjoy...maybe just change the wheels.
Maybe ask Rob if he wants the shell etc?..............
