OK, here is just a simple mock up of ride height, and yeah it's on it's lowest setting, as you can see she's been shaved, and the wind wing will be removed, shortly, this is part of the street, more to come soon...

OK, still have to do some adjustments with the mud, and sanding but this is where she sits right now, I've molded the rear bumper to the car, and the front bumperettes, along with the front rolled pan.

That's a dandy job you're doing.Great engine choice,too.Maybe a set of lakers with cut-out dumps,(right at the turn)too. That would add to the loud factor real well. Keep at it. Best.Bill
