I'll sell this one, want me to stop cutting ?


I'm going to try to get 10" drag radials under it

The tires shown are 28 x 10 slicks


Going to mini-tub it and hopefully there is enough room


Front will be an Alterkation

Neat but, not going to need that for this car for some time..

After the chassis stuff, I'm going to have the insides done

Plan is to leave most of the body as is

fix the lower 1/4's is all

Maybe it will be ready next summer for some highway driving to see if everything works
