stuck between 2 cars, i have 2 very clean shells, '01 china and a '98 diablo, both of which a blank canvases right now. looking at building a fast road weapon/occasional track slag, i have all the ingredients for a proper chassis revamp but just can't decide between the 2, the china is the newest being a 2001 but i think i actually prefer my diablo however it has a sunshine roof whereas the china doesnt.

Newer and no sunroof? Surely there's only one option?

diablo will fade and peel, and also rust on the roof due to the spotwelded sunroof frame, post galv.

I'll take a photo of my diablo which is a prime example of why you shouldn't use the diablo, there is more lacquer on my drive than on my car now
