tubbs Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 I agree on the fuel cell comment,reason i used that fuel tank is to make it look more of a street car than a race car,give it that street car look..sort off.Thanks for your comments, that sounds reasonable. and I don't want to sound like I am tearing up your build, oh on the contrary, I ask to find out why people do what they do. their basis behind their ideas. this is looking great. nice to see some pro street builds going on.

1 bad55 stan Posted May 17, 2014 Author Share Posted May 17, 2014 Thanks for all your comments,Well i have had a few problems since my last post,I dropped the roll cage and tried to repair it,then i flocked the interior and the roll cage sat to high for the body to sit down properly.So i built a new cage.Next up was the inner fenders i built,i cut them out and re done them.I shaved off the fender emblems and gave it a coat of primer,disaster number 3.I now have a lot of sanding to do.but any ways here is were im at. comments are welcome as always, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
