69 one-off... Custom ls9 build...
This is soon to be the #1 supercar available... 100% Custom one-off build... LS-9 CRATE... Custom built t-56 w/viper tail... Art Morrison Subframe built into a full custom front to back frame... the frame is built to handle 1000hp... DSE Quadralink Rear End with 9"... 6 piston baer's all the way around... Custom Forgelines on all 4 corners (19x14 rear, 18x10 front)... Custom nascar type exhaust that will be running thru the frame and out the sides in-front of the rear rubber (rectangle tipped)... mirrors off of the 09 vette, doors are shaved with the 09 vette entry wrap-around handles being integrated into the door edge... 2" cowl hood with acrylic windows built in on each side of the cowl (to have a view of the powerplant with the hood shut)... lots lots more!!! BUT!!! the main attraction... A complete custom widening of the body (5"), 2.5" on each side!!! This car will be a true one of a kind!!! the rendering was done before the thought of widening the body... so when pics get up on the rendering, it will finish out exactly as drawn with the exception of the body being pulled out... Nothing will be standard about this one when done!!!

I think it looks a lot better like this. This has been my screen saver for some time.
do you have any pics of how you are doing the side exhaust. Need some ideas
Here is my unfinished rendering by a fellow member here(HalfAssWhiteTrash )

Cool looking rendering but I'm not big on the mirrors or the LS9 badging on the grill.
This is only my own opinion though. otherwise, i'm sure it will be a very sweet build.

Cool project but I'm not liking the body widening much myself.

What tire have you found that needs a 19"x14" rear wheel??? I didn't think the KDW2 made a wide 19" tire...
As far as wheel widths go... I haven't found ANY street tire that required a 14" wide wheel...
I wish there was... I would surely use them...
NICE project BTW...
I'm definitely interested in seeing how the wide-body turns out...
I think it's going to be REALLY cool...

This is an awesome looking build. Can't wait to see more of it. I want to know more about the tires you are running. I'm running 19x13 wheels and the biggest tire I can find is a 345. I'd like to run a 355 on the rear but I can't find anyone that stocks them. Pirelli has them on their website but all the retailers say permanently back-ordered. Details please, size, brand, etc. Thanks.

Good luck with the KDW2's.... They only make up to a 295/30/19...
I've been looking for a set of tires for a c6 z06... 325/30/19 and even there tire selection for that size blows!
