It's all fiberglass? Man, that just screams "Made in China" all over ...

(the Jeep logo is a little crooked BTW)

It reminds me of the guys who built a knock off Mercedes SLR with a 560 SEC chassis. It cost the guy something like 80 grand, and it was so good I think he sold it for something like 120. Althought not real, it looked identical and I guess for that price it was a steal. If I find it, I'll post the link.

It also just goes to show you what we are capable of having the proper resources and lots of time.
