 This is not really based on a real car, but I got this idea from a game that I play frequently with a couple of friends. I had this body and chassis laying around in a box. Serious glue bomb so I took it apart as carefully as I could, alot of parts were missing and a couple of things snapped off. The front end was so badly damaged that I decided to cut it off, the firewall was missing so I have to scratch a new one, or modify another one to fit. This is what it looks like now   I may have to remove more material from the rear fenders and wheel wells to get it to sit a little bit lower. Lucas. |

Looks crazy, i like it ! ! Think youve got the front end a little too far forward, maybe shorten it a little ? Cool idea though, should look great when your finished !  |

You have a great start going so far Lucas. Will be watching this.
I was around when drag racing first started in the '50's. All 1/8th mile dirt tracks at first and bring what you have and no safety measures. Guys would sit on milk buckets and drive in sleeveless T-shirts. I saw many,many cars run that looked like the one in your first picture. You could put that model up as finished product and it would be right.

Thanks guys!
Yeah, the front needs shortening. Nothing is glued so it's not a big deal. Probably gonna cut a small bit on the back of the crossmember so the engine lines up with the trans mount.

This is a cool idea mate, and will be one sick build when it's done.
