Decided to have a few open drawers also.
Everything thing is plastruc, and basswood.
Also got this assembled for the shop.
Nice little kit highly recommended. Ramps can be up or down.

Decide the shop needed a vehicle. I took these.
Then did this.
And finally a mock up.

Decided to add a little detail to it. First up I roughed in the headers for it, and built a frame.
Have to add the front suspension yet.
How about a starter, and oil pan, and water pump pulleys.
Oil Filter, and transmission.
Firewall, and up on wheels.

Finally got the guts to tackle the front suspension on this build. I took a 1/4" piece of tubing, cut it 1/16th" thick, then cut that in half to make the springs. The drop axle is a piece of florists wire. The small wire betweent th frame is for the engine mount.
Next I put on the tires to check the stance.
Then dropped on the body to check clearances.
I may have to tweak the front just a tad lower.

Yes I did build one, but as I remember it was more frustrating than fun.... LOL

Okay guys here's the latest. If you have a engine you need a rear end, and drive shaft right.
Here's a before (RED), and a after Yellow) showing what the original looks like(Red).
Started thinking maybe I could lower the roof abit.
Finally the stance between the 2.
