Title: Body and frame in Montoursville, Pa
Post by: gideon on Wednesday,July 22, 2020, 05:37:32 PM: Asking $1000, it's hard to tell what shape the body and the frame are in. Somebody made a replacement front section for the frame, to their own design, but didn't finish the job.

the weight in total of that front "T" section of the frame certainly weighs a lot more than the original sheet metal boxed "T".
body looks nice....looked like it was a pretty decent car, before it got hacked up.... :(

It has evolved.

Elon Musk must be very jealous.

Yup!
That is way beyond ugly.

Is it in production?

Have any sold yet?

Post by: BDA on Friday,July 24, 2020, 08:40:10 AM: It's supposed to go into production soon. Tesla is opening a new plant to build it in Texas. I don't know of any time tables though.

Here's a video with Jay Leno and Elon Musk with the Cybertruck: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25ZuKkbHdqM

Here's a video of the unveiling. The bulletproof part didn't pan out so well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m7atGkba-Z8
