Looks like we already have our answer - Youtubers will buy them for content.

If the quality improves significantly then enthusiasts and restorers will obviously buy them, but based on what I've seen so far I'm not expecting the quality to improve by much.
Nah people who build track/rally car's will buy them eventually.
Just look at the chinese Ford Escorts.
They probably went through the same stuff like the 86.
MST uses them for their builds so they probably helped to get them better.
Something similar for the 86 would speed it up, that's why IMO its a bummer that Battlegarage sold theirs.

Also think it would be smart to also sell the shell as a DIY package for alot cheaper. That would be perfect to save rusty/crashed shells and solves the issue to register it.
