			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img vspace="4" hspace="4" border="0" alt="" src="http://hackadaycom.files.wordpress.com/2008/06/had-priceofhistoys.jpg" /><br />We&#8217;re big fans of <a href="http://transportation.hackaday.com/category/transportation-hacks/">scratch built transportation</a> and got some great news earlier this month: After a long hiatus, <a href="http://www.priceofhistoys.com/">thepriceofhistoys.com</a> has returned and is ready to serve up all the news about kit cars and home-built cars that you could want. For those who don&#8217;t know, kit cars are sets of car parts that require assembly often lacking drivetrain components, which must be acquired from donor vehicles. Aside from kit cars, home-builds, and the occasional custom job, many of the cars the site discusses are also for sale.</p>
<p> Kit cars can be pretty fun on their own, but many of the builds featured on the site spice it up further by adding varying levels of customization. This <a href="http://www.priceofhistoys.com/2008/06/10/tornado-mclaren-m6-gtr-replica/">Tornado McLaren M6 GTR Replica</a>, for example, uses a 3.5L V8 Rover engine and some custom body work to improve visibility. Another fascinating and rare kit uses a Beetle&#8217;s chassis and features <a href="http://www.priceofhistoys.com/2008/06/07/vw-beetle-or-porsche/">a body that looks like a Beetle crossed with a Porche</a>. Of course, none of these are as practical <a href="http://www.hackaday.com/2008/06/16/geo-metro-halved-for-better-mileage/">cutting a Geo Metro in half for improved milage</a>, but to car kit builders, practicality holds a very low place on their list of priorities. </p>
