Kit Cars are an honored tradition both here and abroad. Since the first gasoline engine was mated to a transmission and a set of wheels people have been tinkering in their garage coming up with their "perfect" vehicle. Kit cars are simply an extension of that fun for those who wish more of the enjoyment with less of the trial and error that goes with building your car from scratch.
Today's kit cars are professionally produced, some using computer-aided design and high-tech artistry. They come in fiberglass and aluminum, with thick instruction manuals that detail the process of turning a pile of parts into a dream car.
Don't confuse the kit cars of today with the classic VW kit cars of the 60s and 70s. Today's Ferrari kit cars and Shelby kit cars are highly engineered masterpieces. When assembled properly they can rival the quality seen in larger-scale manufacturers.
You'll find all kinds of kit cars for sale here, as well as the parts and tools to build one yourself. Study the listings, and visit some of the popular manufacturer web sites such as Factory Five and Superformance. Let your inner grease monkey come forth!
