ok fellas i did it this way for a reason because they are rare and you dont see them often... BUT the public has spoken.. so how bout this. when i said scratch build a must that can be one part. if you cant scratch build thats fine .. and as far as street trucks go i was refering to a box stock plain jaine build so a sweet modified street truck is fine as long as it has a drag truck feel to it. i would realy like to see this happen so if this can change your mind to participate then cool bean ... and if there is any other concerns about this project let me kw ...I WANT TO BE FAIR AN LET AS MANY BUILDERS IN AS POSIBLE... THANK YOU ...Davin
