Default Crazy Viper/cheap road car Idea

Ok I may be stupid but just hear me out. I found these real cheap rolling chasis vipers on ebay and was thinking it would be cool to just fabricate some panels,hood, leave the doors open with an xbar in place for safety, make a rear bumper and PRESTO!! Instant road carving car with the power of a viper. I was thinkin about the ariel atom when I saw this. Any way I have no job so I think of wierd **** all day long....

well it WAS like 6-8k but now its at 13k. People found it and started biding. I mean 6-8k for basically a full car with 500hp, independent rear suspension, seats, interior thats a deal.
