rsxse240 Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 I saw that car when it was originally being built and it was at one of the shops I delivered parts to getting some final touches worked out. The air to water intercooler set up was very intriguing since it went all the way to the back seat area and they used dry ice to help cool it.

Rolandm925 Posted April 3, 2015 Author Share Posted April 3, 2015 Thanks all for the positive feed back, I expect to here some negative as well, or what they say" constructive criticism" it took a month just to mount and fabricate a steering gearbox that will work and fit between the frame and header. Yes it steers and rolls better than new. Made out of small gears from an 80's cassette deck. Also front rotors and calipers are hand carved out of aluminum push scooter pieces and rivets. If you can imagine it, you can make it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
