Wow, that was a bit brutal, Downer Dave.
I'm seeing the glass half full, not empty. Why not promote a cool new kit?
We've had nothing new like this pop up let alone a decent SE clone.
Looks like plenty of suspension left, and the control arms look good amongst other things. I think using the word 'stripped' is harsh. Reading the description it looks doable. You make it sound like a gutted fish.
Contrary to what you posted, the images on eBay tell a different story. A lot of the suspension components are there. The rear square tubes supporting it are bent, yes...but this can be saved or re-done back there.
Here I go thinking...like you did: the chassis is cool ...but who cares, better frames can be built or substituted. Take it or leave it.
The body is not all cracked up and really is an easy fix now that better images are posted.
Tu no sabes nada...according to the bidding action. Looking forward to seeing some better looking Sesto clones out there. That thing is awesome looking!
