VX02 Imperiled?

[JoFotoz]

Yup..it does..BUT!

The removal of the roof obviously lends itself to flexing of the structure...

...and this hasnt (IMO!) been properly addressed.

Under the custom f/glass cover there is a very basic latice of 1 maybe 1 1/2 inch
square tube bracing...and thats it.

Its a GREAT design / fantasy / show car production...
.....but not IMO Road Worthy for any kind of normal driving.

I'll be interested to see if it's one of the vehicles chosen for the auction block too. And while it's current state of build might not necessarily be road worthy, there's no rule that says a new owner would have to leave it that way. Seems to me all that would be required is a beefing up of the existing support structure with some heavier duty tubing and some tie-in frame/body connections when necessary (maybe with Shelby Cobra-esque roll bars). Seems like that would be nothing for a determined VX'er anyway.

Perhaps "Not Road worthy" is a bit harsh.....

But in its present configuation, I believe it would shake apart
given the lack of body rigidity.

And for sure.. it can be made road worthy...
..pretty much anything can given time and $$'s thrown at it!


That I guess would be up to a new owner...

...should it ever sell..and should the new owner wish to cruise in it!

If you say so. That seemed equivalent to a "static display" that "would fall apart if used" coming from someone who's seen it in person anyway.
