I've spent years designing my own car from scratch. I went as far as biulding a 3 dimentional clay model of it at 1:24th scale. I've had people tell me that I should contact someone in the auto building industry, and try to sell the design. But personally I would be happy just to build one to take to shows. I've put my heart, and soul into this design, but I don't know what to do next. I've designed a supercar thats different than every-other supercar already out there. I intentionally wanted to design a car that would turn heads... but unfortunatly it's only an idea. I want to make it a reality. Please if anyone can help me, maybe point me in the right direction. I would greatly appreciate your time, and effort. I hope to be able to show all of my fellow KitCar Mag. readers the final product. And if it's trully sucessful, I would be willing to sign a contract with a kit car manufaturer, (in order to share my own love of automobiles with others like myself), to build and sell my design for others to enjoy. Thankyou. Sincerly, R.Reed

This is my first message here, so please bear with me.

I would say your next step would depend on three factors: Mechanical aptitude, finances, and time. If you are mechanically inclined,have money and the free time, you could build your "super-car" on your own. That is what I have been doing, I have a 500HP 351 Windsor engine and a Ford Racing Tremec 5-Speed transmission and am installing them in a "home-built" 200-plus MPH "super-car". Though my design really isn't relying on fabricating the entire car( I'm using existing parts mostly, tail lights, windshield, head lights etc), but I am building my own body for it out of "sheetmetal".

You designed it, now you want to build it. I'm designing it AS I am building mine.

ask yourself if there is a market for it first because you could spend a life time building and if there is no market then why would you want to
