He claims he wants to rebuild the existing chassis,but in the engine tear down video,he does mention he's bought another lesser burnt wide body for parts. To me i think rebuilding the Demon chassis would be a bit risky,as sheetmetal burnt that bad doesn't promote much in the way of structural support,and the late model car platforms are nothing more then stamped sheet metal.

Exactly.. now if he decides to put some form of built up chassis under the body then it might hold up. He'll need to do some good prep on the metal and use a good epoxy primer to hold the paint on
