Contingencies a little different and Sponsor way smaller. This car changed a lot over its existence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkJ Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 A quickie for you translates to a 3 month build for me. Another over the top awesome build. Where did the body come from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might just build it box stock and not worry about accuracy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
