Building a car from the ground up, even in kit form, ain't easy. Forget about installing an engine and transmission. That's easy compared to getting body panels and doors to align or electrical systems to work together. And all that tedious stuff is at least one reason most of us don't have hot rods sitting in our garages. Never mind the cost.

One company that understands all that and more is So-Cal Speedshop. They should, they've been building rods since 1946. Now they're offering time-strapped or inpatient hot-rodders a So-Cal Stage 4 Hiboy Roadster. For just less than $40,000, you get a steel '32 Ford Deuce-style body and chassis complete with all brake and fuel lines, suspension pieces, So-Cal windshield, steering wheel, guages and fuel tank. Drop in some Mexican blanketed seats and the drivetrain of your choice and you're ready for the strip. Later you might even add some paint for a little show with your go.

No, $40k isn't exactly cheap for what's basically a hot rod shell, but think of all the time and headaches that money could save you.

Get all details from So-Cal after the jump.
