this is the original build thread from XMF.

Quote:
i originally started this car last august and it was one of the first models that i wanted to put on an Xmod.
with the little knowledge of the cars however and few parts, it was almost impossible since it's such a long body.
it sat in a box for about 6 months until i moved some stuff around and saw it sitting there begging to be finished.
i didnt do a whole lot after that. pulled it out,stripped the original paint and putty and put it back in the box.

i pulled it back out again on the first of the month(AUG) and set back to work on it and now i'm determined to finish it.

the chassis is mostly stock for now until i can get some other stuff sold.

[="Blue"]the RWD chassis has:[/]

custom plexi lower/upper decks

Bearings

GPM rear springs

custom wheels

here's the progress pics from 8/1/07 until now (8/30/07)
i'm just going to throw up what i have for now and i'll go back and explain the pics a bit more in the morning.

not all of the pics are in the final design.
some were concepts of how i intended to do something or another.








i still have some more cutting to do on the engine bay;)...she's sittin kinda high
















more updates coming soon.

i've been building this car for over 2 years.
either i could'nt figure out what to do or i did'nt have the money to do what i needed.
if you really look the car over you will notice all kinds of obsticles that i had to think through.
the final product came out almost exactly like what i had envisioned 2 years ago.

The early stages reminded me of the superbird/daytona (can't remember which) in Joe Dirt :lol: .
