Kitcar based on old Accord

Don't really know where to put this thread in the new layout, no non-TSX section...
I've been helping a friend of mine out a bit with his kitcar (a Burton based on a Citroen 2CV). Didn't have much experience with car building before and must admit it was a nice way to spend some of the few 'spare time' I have (busy job, family man blah blah). So I went searching the net for a kitcar more to my liking and came up with this :








It's a kitcar called the K1 Attack and it's using an old Accord (90-93) as a donor car. Basic package is just under 17000 euro's. Lot of money, but then again a very nice and exclusive car to have in my opinion. Anybody who's seen these around ? For those with interrest have a look on their website :

Official K1 Attack website (Slovak Republic)

They have recently added the 'F-model' and seem to be concentrating more on these (F=Ford so with Ford based engines). Initial K1 was based on Accord donor cars and is still available. It's mentioned on the site... Check the gauches in the pic... that's a 90-93 Accord panel there...

actually .. this car is based off a Hona Accord 90-97. 90-93 is documented to work becuase the use a 90-93 acord as doner.. 94-97 would also work. Now here's the good stuff ... 92-96 Prelude motor can fit in there!!!! imagine a car that's lighter than say a civic with rear wheel drive with a vtec prelude motor! woooo .. sounds like s2k

Accord is just a donor car... you'll need parts of the Accord, but not the chassis or body. Engine, gearbox, etc is used... should be a list of the parts used on the website somewhere...
