Hey John...now you got mr all excited...sound like just what I'm looking for, I will go hit you in private for details, Many thanks!!! Cheers, P.

Damian I need all the help I can get many thanks! but I am seeking the V8 full frame Valkyrie...not the VW Avenger models, I know Dan who offers the Valkyrie new...but cost wise....I might as well buy a replica GT40

I posted all over that I am looking, I really kind of hate ebay....sport bidders playing and running bids up many times being deadbeats....and of course shill bidders...that has happened to several cars I wanted, I figure someone out there will know of a valk tucked away and unloved and turn me...

David, Many thanks for looking out for me, I believe you are talking about the tittusville one, I talked with the selller, I was 45 mins away but I felt 5 K was too much for that car...what do you know someone didnt and paid 5K and the auction stopped.... so I lost out on that one....:shifty:

Jim, thanks for the kind words and warm welcome, I sure didnt mean it personal against this site....I haunt way too many car sites and "somewhere" the trashing and bashing of the low end and VW based stuff was out of control really mean remarks...not that too many VW based cars are not hack...

Hope this find you guys doing well, before you start flaming me I know what a POS you think the Valkyrie is just try to understand that I have a passion for the early grass roots kit cars, Avengers, Valkyries, Mantas, ETC, And I didn't think I was going to buy another car but I decided I want...

I have a website you might enjoy, http://frost.bbboy.net/vwengineconversions Someone else thought the v6 chevy route http://knoxville.craigslist.org/cto/2301974195.html Engines with low torque bolted to VW trannys...What you will run into is you basically loose first gear...it's like...

The car in this thread and the car on the Melson web site ARE the same car BUT Melson did not build the car, never saw the car in person and is not connected to it in any way, Melson just used pictures that he found on the web...I hope that clears that up. Look at the car...it's a modded "D"...

Bob...Don't believe everything you see on a website..... I have spent many hours in emails and phone calls with Dan Melson...I deeply wanted it all to be the case...he said he had the old LA Exotics molds and I was jazzed. Melson post pics of things they simple did not build, the pictures on...

Bob, Thanks for the kind words, Not to rain on your picnic but I do not believe Melson/csi has built anything and I know they did NOT build the car this thread is about, He sent me some pictures of a hack jobbed Fiero with a Kellison GT40 body and when I didn't want to pay him something like...

CRC, You are so very correct we never need to like everything out there but a big old curse of the online car forum is how some people get all obsessed with being all negative you know bashing and trashing something they don't even have an interest in, I find it sad that some people kind find...

My project base is a Kellison GT40k that I will be adding custom touches to, Admitted my project IS a red headed bastard here with all the wonderful clones and replicas but I have no other place to get higher end tech on this stuff, sure I have played with "kit cars" over 30 years but most all...

I dont know why I am not finding the thread, perhaps some kind soul would take the nect step and post the link to it for me, many thanks P.

I am curious is there a Transaxle that is automatic that could be used in a Mid engine car like the GT40? I want something that the layout is V8 engine then diff then tranny and that tranny is automatic if that creature exists. Thanks Cheers, P.
