Ladies and gentlemen:

It's time for one of those "common sense" remarks.

It should go WITHOUT SAYING that if you EVER construct a vehicle from a 
shoebox car, you NEVER sell it.   You keep it until you die, or if it 
eventually outlives its usefulness, you part it out.

If you have any brains at all, you do NOT sell it.    Ever.      It's that 
simple.

If you DO sell it and you get called on the carpet by an unsuspecting 
purchaser, you deserve whatever you get.   You should have known better 
than to attempt to sell it in the first place.
