Tusabes yes I have pics of my old builds, I have built the g24 and g28 from carkitinc, and the cost was well over $12,000 heck it was well over $25,000.

Well ask yourself what you'll be able to do differently to shave $13000 off your prior build costs . Cheap rims, no OEM parts etc.

And let's see the pics of your prior builds !!!

Jackie is like Rob, he'll say anything to sell a kit. Good luck with it though, and LMK if theres anything I can do to help!

I bet SR could build it for you for $11K, and it would be indistinguishable from the real thing  ;)

Yeah do the g28, even if it costs more than $12000 at least you can do better reselling it than a g24

Which Cki kit have you built prior to this? How much did it cost compared to how much Jackie claims it cost ?  Have any pics?

of course he swears it he wants you to spend money with him, invest in returns not wreckless investments that will not payoff, just saying, best of luck though...

Believe me I know, I have built a carkitinc replica before, all I'm doing here is trying to prove or dis-prove Jackie's $12,000 theory. I don't think it can be done, but Jackie swear it can. This will be a fast build also, I have all the money up front and already have the fiero stretched with freshly rebuilt v6.

Oh Geeez, here we go again (and we wonder why the OE owners laugh at us  ::tongue) You get what you pay for.
If you're lucky, you can get $5500 for it when you're done!

 ??? Ok CARKITINC/Jackie says you can build a Mercy kit for under $12,000.00. Can it be done with out sacrificing all the good stuff like power windows, working batwings ETC.. Well I am going to take the CARKITINC CHALLENGE. A $12,000.00 build, before anyone says it can't be done or ridcules me for it let us test this theory. Ok so here the rules, it will be a G24 built on a 1986 v6 auto fiero, have power windows, working batwing, Corvette Rims, Replica vinyl interior, all lights working normal, and remember my GOAL IS TO GET THIS REPLICA/KIT CAR ON THE ROAD WITH AS LITTLE MONEY AS POSSIBLE, SO SAYING THAT IM NOT TRYING TO MAKE IT LOOK LIKE THE REAL DEAL.. JUST TRYING TO GET IT FINISHED AND ROAD WORTHY FOR $12,000.00...  I will post pics and everything I purchase down to the penny on here... ???
