rocpede · 12-31-2005, 07:13 PM

did some more work and mocked it up to see what it is going to look like and the tranny is going to be standing because the tranny will be in the way of the lower links. still have to build the tranny mount, link mounts, shock and body mounts too.

OldSchoolCrawler · 12-31-2005, 08:34 PM

I'm more of a scale guy myself, but I do appreciate the craftsmenship of a nice tuber. Yours is no exception, fantastic desighn and followthrough from conseption to production. Will you be useing a lexan body, or makeing pannels to compliment this work of art?

Fordx4 · 12-31-2005, 08:51 PM

very very cool, keep posting pics its looking so awsome

rocpede · 01-01-2006, 10:01 AM

yes i'm using lexan for the panels and i'm thinking pianting it orange or some other color.
