      nice pictures... very cool setting.

      only thing, I would see if you can't get the front of the hood to line up a little better.

      time to update your sig.

      I LOVE it man!! I like backyard builds that focus on function over form. How big of a cowl hood is that??

      rust is a factory option... the previous owner decided it was a good thing i guess..


      but that's nothing.... you should see the trunk... haha

      but it'll all be fixed.. building it for road racing.. so needs to be safe n all that crap and break neck speeds..

      thanks man..

      little update whilst i'm here...... It developed a little (read big) knock... so with the awesome luck i've been having this year with motors, I've decided to pack it in untill well.. when it's all back together.

      and unfortunately those wheels wont work with the 14" brakes im planning on running..... so it's time to find some new shoes. Oh well, that's life..

      Looks good and tough. I like the name, my buddy had one we named "The Nutless Cutlass". Nice

      that's awesome. i wish there were more big diameter steel wheels out there. light and cheap and all. not everyone needs a $4000 set of wheels.

      Great pics! I love the look too. I would go with a 2" cowl and loose the hood orn. Just my .02.

      I wish they made more subtle center caps for those wheels too. But you can't beat 'em, they're great for the price.

      Good luck with the build, looks like a fun one.
