Well, it would seem that the pictures are of a Grp 'N' car being built, so unless your car looks like, and is built like that, then it's a country mile off being like a grp 'n' car.....

I havent read far enough to see whether its a Group A/N car or a WRC; but even lowly GpN cars are fully seam welded. If they werent they literally fall to pieces on a forest stage. It is a common misconception that GpN cars are standard, they arent, far from it.
