    Looks like it's time to hang the plates and start test driving.

    Great work! I really like the headers and the exhaust through the body. Awesome job on the console. Overall, a badass car.

    I have to chime in.
    I like the exhaust hole in the side of the car (really nice work), but would like to see the exhaust exit through this hole (headers inside the frame). Secondly, it looks cartoony. the whole thing is too long, proportion lost.
    I like the shortened cab. It looks like a famous altered from the sixties, but stretching the front end way forward like that makes it lose it's appeal.
    Just my .02 worth.

    Very nice work so far!

    I like it, but I don't? The front looks about half the tires dia. too long.
    If it was mine,and it's not,I would move the front tire back about 12-14 inches.
    Since it's yours, I'd leave it how YOU want it.

    I LOVE the shortened body! It looks kinda like a vicky,

    I would love to do this to a vicky;

    Well, as you can see in my photos, there is no way the wheel base could be any shorter unless I ran the car with out a radiator :)
