Your ride is lookin great Kenny. Its great seeing something a little different. What did you do to the rear quarters over the wheel well opening? Stretch it out a little bit or something else? I will definately make it a point to see it at ITB in 08 if its there.

Yeah i stretched the wheel well forward by 1 3/4" to make the 22's look right. they would have tucked behind the quarter to much and were off center in the wheel well when it was lifted. They are damn near dead center now when dropped and lifted. I also incorporated the 3/16" rockers into the bottom of the quarters when welded it all back together. They are super stiff and I' glad i did the mod. But i dont think i will ever do it again. It was a bitch to do. Lol.

i seen it at dropt n destroyed. you definitely got a lot of work in that thing! gonna look good when its all done

damn it looks good

LOOKIN SICK BRO

what wheel and tire combo are you running? it looks great can't wait to see it done.

cool seeing one being done up for show n go, most of the ones ive seen get cut for race cars for the local dirt tracks

fyi - speedway motors sells tubular upper a-arms for $40 a piece, very clean and worth checking out

That bitch is bad. I used to have a hydro car like that back in the day. Keep up the good work. Got any pics of the frame and underside?

It's laying on 225/35/20 in the front (biggest that will fit under the fender for now). The rear is laying on a 255/30/22 tire. My rims are 8.5 width. I wish i could run a larger tire but thats all the body will hold. I'll try to dig up some pics of the frame and underside. Its pretty basic, back halfed with a triangulated four link and bags mounted behind the axle. I used a SD universal four link kit to fab it all up with. Theres a fuel cell in the rear and a custom Wilwood rear disc setup also. Like i said I'll try to hunt down some pics this week and post them. I'm almost done with my house so i should be able to show some actual progress soon. I wanna try to have it running and in primer by Indy 08 so the garage is where I'll be all winter (not like i have the money to do anything else anyways). I'll keep you guys posted.
