You pretty much purchase the car replica kit and find a donor motor. The kit car package contains all the panels and instructions to assemble it together. Depending on the quality of the kit, you may need to do some custom work to fit the pieces together.
There a show on Speed TV called KIT: an auto bodt experience. They did a Lambo kit comparison saturday, a V12 Lambo against a Pontiac Fiero V6 based kit. Basically a kit is a cheaper car with a fiberglass body, a sheep in wolvesclothing. some require a lot of work but some take a little. The 2 Lambos were taken to downtown LA and half the ppl asked couldn't tell the difference, The Real Lambo cost $247,000 the kit less than $25,000 but it was built by the owner so no labor costs but sweat equity. It literally is YOUR car. Another test told by the same episode had a small block Ford 5.0L Cobra kit that out ran a Real 427 Cobra. The small Cobras when new handled better but this the kit handled even better with 40 years of suspension improvments. There is a magazine called KIT car on the grocery store shelf. LOOK around and pick well. At $6000 it might be goood deal but I would look at it in real life before I paid, contac the owner and make a play date

It comes with directions and everything you need to build the car except paint, tools, engine, and transmsision.
Basically, you just get body, suspension, tires/wheels, chassis, interior, lights, etc.
