Does anybody know anything about the Ultima for sale in Holland? I have tried e-mailing him but got no response.

This is the blue one advertised here on PH? It's been up for sale for ages, so it's always possible that his email address is out of date.

It's basically a rolling chassis. I don't know why the owner stopped at this point, but bearing in mind that there is still a fair bit of finishing off work to do along with fitting the engine and gearbox, I'd be surprised if it was going to be as simple as just buying them and dropping them in.

If you can get it cheaply enough, and the guy has done a good enough job of building the kit up to now, it's probably worth a go. You'll be on the road in a matter of weeks rather than months.

You could call the factory. They're always helpful about cars that people are interested in buying, and they generaly know an awful lot about the person who bought it, how many stages they bought and how far they got before giving up.

I'm not sure what money is being asked for the car? My biggest concern would be SVA compliance once the car is finished!

Looks a nice car though going by the piccies.

I was interested in that car and have been emailing him (he's always responded quickly). His address is wnn311891@tiscali.nl

He wants a little much for the car imho, he's asking 35k Euros...which sounds cheap until you start adding things up.
