Some bondo Work:

Wow nice build i'll have to keep an eye on this one. Whats the plans for the motor?

 

Props man :thumbup: thats a lot of work!

Is this going to be strictly a race car?

 

Street and Track I would like to do some shows with it and sort it out for the first year or two. Eventually the car will probably be used more on the tracks but I would still like it to be street legal, think current wrc cars.

Engine:

 

Fantastic work, I wish I had the time and money to do something like that.

 

Words have failed me...........<wipes drool off>
