kod38 Posted June 18, 2006 Author Posted June 18, 2006 Well, It was killing me so I threw some paint on the body prematurely,then I managed to drop it and stepped no it and broke the windsheild pillar. Nice one. After a quick fix,I re squirted it. This thing is very fragile body wise,especially since I cut so much of the body apart and made some of it.LOL! Anyway-the front is on it's own wheels now.Need to build shocks so I can finish the front mounts and make the rear mounts,arms and cage work. The radiator is mounted,spare mount done engine mounts,shifter tower and shifter,pedal,steering rack,......the front lower control arms have extra material where the shock will mount so don't flame me yet.

kod38 Posted November 1, 2006 Author Posted November 1, 2006 Hey guys, The contest is officially closed,however I will accept your pictures until friday night. I will need to class it all out and seperate the done builds into categories or what ever works. I may need help from DB on that. Then I will set up voting polls and give them 1-2 weeks to collect votes. Also I will package prizes and post a folder of 1-2-3 etc.. After winners are figured I will post them and start contacting you to get your prizes out. Thanks. Doug R kod38@hotmail.com Please email me 4 pictures of your contest build.
