    Good thought though living on a tropical beach doing cars for cash, paying little to no overheads in the Philippines or Thailand
    Funny you mentioned Elenor. There is a series called "Rides" it's a yank show, anyway they did a story on a company in Texas who build these Elenor copy's. Can't remember the name I'll look it up and let you know. Anyway they looked real good in the series, until you Google their name. Crikey!! Dodgy!! Not the word for it.
    Unique performance, that was them. Look it up, interesting read.

    unique performance. The guy is Doug Hasty
    They built one car for Paul Snr from OCC. They then built I think 3 cars that they took to shows etc getting orders and deposits.
    All the time they were buying every 67 mustang they could, driving the price through the roof.
    They then cut and shut, changed car vins, ids, title washing ( what they got charged with) etc.
    Never delivered any cars or paid bills etc so down they went.

    The repair rate must be cheap when you think shipping alone would be about $5000.
