Pits look good. I gotsa wonder how the thing steers with a drag Link angle like that.

The pics look awesome.

Well, I couldn't get over the dark purple on the hood so I went to strip the paint using some tips of youtube videos using brake fluid dot 4 and well it got all cloudy so I just went with black for the hood for now until I get a dinky hood, cut and fit and respray purple. The black will have to do for now...




Once I have it dried in the next hour I will get pics of it all mounted...

Well to make the 2 tone flow a little better I got some styrene and made a rear cover and painted that the roof and hood all the same color. I am really starting to dig it now ! What you guys think?

Hinged hood








Hmmm, Maybe a spare tire?

How would it not, don't think ya looked at em right. Setting epas is the right way anyway. But like the other guy said it will give ya clearance. Looking good though bud and yes cms on rear is where its at

Yeah, CMS and Panhard in rear with 4ws might be the next step for this beast!
