Can you build a GP N Subaru?

I can't. 800 hours for me = lots of cups of tea and probably half the worlds supply of hobnobs

yes you can buy a shell,but most folk start with a full car as its better to have all the bits you need to start with rather than try to source clips,screws,rubber grommits,door looms etc etc etc.
