I don't think anyone could argue with the skill it took to do all that work - great in progress photos too.
Unfortunately, I tend to believe that most kit cars look just like what they are, kit cars.
I cringed as I saw what happened to this poor NSX - though the finish result does look like it was a nice job, (man how many hours went into that?) I still feel sorry for the NSX. Nonetheless, I appreciate the skills it took to perform that transformation and then yes, paint it black. That speaks to the skills of the craftsmen who did this.
I wonder how much more the car weighs now with all that bondo?
