Fantastic ! Can't wait to see the end result. The twin turbo set up is bananas ! I just pulled my wip out of the box and onto the work bench last night.( Pro-touring '70 Cuda) been sitting there since the spring. Any way after seeing your build i definetly can't wait to get off of work and start working on it again. Thanks for the motivation! On the real,you have mad skills. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I have learned alot by watching others on these forums. I can honestly say my skills have gotting so much better since i started visiting the forums about 5 years ago. That I think is Heart of the hobby. Learning from each other.

You are soo correct Will the heart of our hobby is the sharing of knowlage and helping each other out. Thx so much for your compliment and it always means alot to know that someone is inspired to get back to modling by my work. Take care and have a great day!

Hey fellas I know its been a few day since you got an update on this build but im waiting on some materials to come in so I can finish this one up. but in the meantime I was able to get the four link done and ready to install here a couple pics of the rear end. enjoy.

Wow! Romell, I've been watching this build for a week or so and am very anxious to see the completed model. You've done a great job.
It's a great idea and you really are making it work. The car looks like a junker but it's all muscle underneath. I like it!
