Future of Glider Kits

There is no regulation. The glider is sold as an "incomplete vehicle" and a remanufactured (used) engine, that is grandfathered in, is installed. There is no law that prevents a person from modifying their own vehicle. From what i understand, the law refers to engines manafactured after a certain date to meet a given pollution standard.

Where or how can I get the Volvo in the glider "form" ?

 

Not a option . Except May be a junk yard. Maybe a low mile with a blown engine?
