Brand New 2002 Bodies In Production!

What is this?  https://strichzwo.de/index.php?itemid=4367

 

If I read correctly, (I've used the translate button),  Mobile Tradition will start making NEW 02 bodies!  If it's true, wow!

 

Cost: 2002 Euros pre-ordered.  Someone should fill a container and ship across the pond.

 

A great option for my spare restored tii engine.

April Fools.

For 2002 Euros, you might get a pair of frame rails.

what happened to the tooling for the 02 I wonder.

Wasn't Jaymic offering 'exchange' bodyshells at one point?

 

Buy one from them up front, transfer your parts to their shell, you ship your old shell back to them, you pay for the repairs on your shell to bring it up to the 'new' condition.

Yes Mike was doing them in the early 90's not sure how many he did but they were 4500 pounds, I seriously thought about it, I had been up to Jaymic many times and their work was fantastic. Decided my car didn't need that much work!

heres an article in classic and sports car that mentions it March 1994, probably cost double that now at least, sorry about the bad pic.
