Thinking the same, all the westfield parts are going on ebay, maybe the body moulds will end up on there aswell

Sorry m8 1 of the reasons we are selling is lack of space, but im sure who ever buys them will be buying them to make money an/or use them to make a new kit car

I know someone kinda keen to make an LMP style car, how much are you looking for the moulds etc?

We are open to offers, had loads of interest these past few days and an offer of £2400 but my dad would rather keep them than sell for that price
Im not sure how much panels are but im sure a full set of panels would cost over £1000 new
Thanks m8

While I would agree £2400 isn't a very good offer and If I was after a set of bodywork would happily pay £1000, to get a good finish takes time and time costs money I wouldn't think there would be more than £400 proffit in making a set, so you would have to sell 6 sets to cover the mould costs,

I agree m8 like i said i no nothing about moulds/body panels etc etc.

The other factor is what it would cost somebody to develop and make a set of moulds from scratch, its going to cost a lot more then £2400, if i remember right they cost Martin Keenan £12,000 and that was some years ago, as the rights to the body moulds are sold with them the buyer could sell a few body panels to make some of the money back whilst they design a chassis to go with the moulds and create a kit car or kit car company them selfs and call it what ever they wanted.

If we had the space and time to do this would be a great project but sadly dont
