Nice! Can't wait, to see the finished product.

BTW you should sand the body down, wipe off with acetone, and paint it again.

Do something different, if you done a stick already. Looking forward to the flicks. And you have any pics of the Nylint for sale?

I'd keep it at a medium stance.. Too low, you'll have tire rub,and it just won't look right.... to high, and your center of gravity will suck, and it'll rollover alot easier.... Make up a custom "droop" style suspension for it.., That would be cool man....
