Dr. Cranky Posted September 1, 2012 Author Share Posted September 1, 2012 Finally, the vision I settled on for this one is that his is a vehicle that is somewhat street legal and could be taken to the track on the weekends, replace the wheels, put on the parachute, wheelie bars, and you are good to run . . . I could have extended the exhaust so that it would be out more and not be likely to flood the cabin with smoke, but then again it's a convertible . . .

Dr. Cranky Posted September 1, 2012 Author Share Posted September 1, 2012 THANK YOU EVERYONE for the support and the helpful suggestions. It's always fun to build with so many of you looking over my shoulders. A special thanks to Donn Yost for helping out with some of the parts and for the technical assistance with the chassis. See you in the next build! Stay tuned in. Best, DC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W-409 Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Turned Out GREAT! Especially the paint job is perfect, like the detailing too. Really good job on it overall. Next time I'd like to see front tires which are bit more narrow than those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
