Why doesn't anyone do a Terrano Kit car.

I was looking on the net for 4x4 kit cars, and there are some based on Discoveries, and land rovers, why oh why...

Just keep the un reliable bits... why don't you...

Some based on the Suzuki SJ series, but nothing based on the Terrano.

If you think about it, the main thing that sends these trucks to the scrap yard in the sky is body rust. Floor pan, inner wings, outer wings, sills etc.
The mechanics are generally sound, and the chassis might need some welding, but without a body, fairly straight forward.

So why doesn't any company do them?

Mot failures are as cheap as chips to pick up.

Just a thought..
