Awesome man!!!
I really like how this turned out! No expense spared, and it looks like it will be a great rig for awhile to come!

Where's the fuel cell

This has come together really nicely. Looks like it handles well on the rocks too.

thanks guys!

a bit more progress..
added gas/brake pedals..cb base..ignition switches..
painted surfaces flat aluminum..painted gauges..
still have to make a gas tank for it..
now to get the body i had painted and cut panels out..
then strip it apart and send tube work off to be powder coated.
then reinstall everything and glue the interior together.





i will be making some plumbing lines for the radiator/gas tank.

i cut/sanded the styrene for a tight fit when all in place and glued.

but for extra measure,im making some slots(for the tabs) to glue on once everythings in place on the underside of the floor pan to hold it all.

well here's the beater panels on..
i like the color..just missing the big block blower on the hood..










didnt like using the zip-ties..but it was my only option
rather than brazing some nuts on it for holding the panels..that may come later on.

I have 1 more of those Hemi motors left like whats on my teeny car. Its the full motor so it just needs to be trimmed out to what you want.
