That's been the plan for a long time. It's being built with an eye to selling it, either for road or drag strip use.
Scottie has his own race car, the Pinto powered "Tiki Munki", feautured in Custom Car magazine last year. Loony's pencilled in to repaint it at some point.
Steve, ("Brock"), used to race The Black Pig, follwed by Black Pig Too which used the same small block Chevy engine. He's now sold the entire car minus the engine, which he's keeping for his next project. The new owner's commisioned him to fit & tune a brand new crate motor, imported from the States.
Steve says he prefers designing & building drag cars to racing them. He may build something new around the Pig engine or continue with his long term project, using a specially moulded single seater fibreglass Morris Minor bodyshell.
The Metropolitan is a joint project between Scottie & Steve for their own amusement really, either to race or sell. They've decided they've got too many other commitments between them to race it, so it's for sale, either complete, or as it is. Fancy it?

Yup, saw it this morning.
Scottie's got it advertised on Ebay at the moment. Several potential "buyers" had asked if they'd sell the rolling chassis without the body. Now it's advertised as such, they've had no takers.
