90% of what, all I see is a stripped & caged shell!!

90% means up & running

Well with a conversion as big as this I'm sure its close to 90%. I'd assume it means all the hard work (rear end set up, tunnels, arches, Cage and Turrets) has been done so its now a matter of bolting and screwing it together.

nope.

90% means it needs fuel/fluids and a polish lol.

Ok, your project is going to a track day so all you have to do is pcik it up. List all the things needed to make your Nova 4x4.....

being a pedantic mofo wont win you prizes (well appart from the pedantic mofo of the year award)

A car that is a bare shell (regardless of the fooking work thats gone into the shell) is 50% at best imho.
you cant tell me that stripping a car to a bare shell makes it 90% of what it used to be!?!?!

No but fitting a cage, tunneling and turreting it and most of the work thats been done to this cant leave it too far away from 90% either.

90% of the time, probably. But not 90% of the overall project/vehicle.

Dod

Ok, agreed but TBH the time is probably how I'd measure my project.

lets pretend you build a house, the foundations take 90weeks to build and the house ontop 10 weeks....... is that a 90% complete house if you sell it as foundations + bits for house?

Dod
