Might be worth the parts alone!

That also looks to be the best widebody kit for these cars, the pacifica, which isn't available anymore. Just like you said, parts alone are worth that. It's not too far away. Too bad I don't the resources for it right now.

eh, I wonder how long that has been sitting in a field rusting. I hate to see that done.

I found this the other day, and was thinking the same thing as Verneuil
