Thanks for the info. Do you get wheels, brakes, radiator, rad pipes, any sort of AC unit? Also is there any aluminium panelling to do and again do the panels come with the kit? What about smaller parts like the fuel filler pipes and caps?
Also does the kit come with a build manual? My GT40 has one and while the build never goes exactly as the manual says it's very useful.
You get a build manual.Originally Posted by TrevS
The only alloy panels you get are the floors, which are already fastened in. The front alloy panels and rear alloy (splash) panels are at extra cost, but available.
No, you don't get wheels, brakes, radiator, rad pipes etc. You don't get fuel filler pipes or caps.
I don't think you get the gear linkage?
Is that right Jeff?

Then a fair amount of donor car parts..................
You will get a lot of support and make a whole bunch of great friends (whichever Statos kit you choose) and a huge sense of achievement when it (finally) hits the road!

Cheers guys. I looked into buying a stratos a few years ago and got very close but had a change of heart at the last moment and went for a GT40. I've got a few options for my next project and a stratos is very much at the top of the list but I want to go into any build with my eyes open as to what to expect and a clear idea of cost. It looks like a very similar build to my GT40 were I've had to do all the metal panelling myself and fabricate some parts or have them made.
Could you give me an idea of the cost needed for a complete kit, additional parts and donor parts. So really a ball park figure for everything I'd need to build the car?

25k. If you start with rebuilt engines, throttle bodies, aftermarket ecu's and big brakes, add another 10k
