This one is already built, but I’m a little leery about the seller, he don’t answer the phone 2 times it went to voice mail and today it has no voice mail box set up?

I owned one.

Passed it on to another person who herself passed it on to yet another person, still unbuilt.

It isn't as simple as just bolting on the bits from your steel-shelled mini. Lots of finish work required. And boy is it thick.

In the end, you'll have a mini that will resist rust. But the amount of fab work required may be equal to what it would take to weld up your steel shell.

Anyone heard of an all fiber glass mini only made for Latin America?
there is someone selling one that says that is what it is.
