I was ou of town mon-thurs. I've gone by several times in the last couple of weeks, but he hasn't been there (and the shop is locked). He's been at a friend's shop, building a Tube frame body.

I will go by after work Friday.

I think the front end looks like a Porsche 928-either a stock S4 or an aftermarket front end for that model. Don't hold me to that though, just tryin to help...

Well the corner lamps definitly look to be porsche... as for the nose itself not porsche maybe derived from a porsche design but not porsche.

Thanks DF for your continual efforts in getting the pics for me... I am about to order some simmons rims from Mariah motorsports to achieve the required back spacing.

Okay, I went Friday, but there wasn't much room.
I took the best pictures I could, considering the car is against the wall, and has rotary engines wrapped in plastic all around it. The blue car looks grey because of all the dust..

Anyways, Here you go:

thanks alex I like the way the rear bumper looks but the way the tail is molded on just does not look right. the lines on the rear of the car do not seam to flow with the lines on the front. may be if I saw it from futher away all in on shot but it does not look like the front end and rear work together. what do you think df?
it has convinced me I should flare my front fenders more on my car though. and look in to somethin differant with the rear bumper.

I agree, that's why I said the rear is ugly. It doesn't have a bumper, and they smoothed it like a truck roll pan.

Personally, it would have looked better with the stock bumper and a wrap-around three-piece tail. Basically a stock Mariah Mode One rear would've been perfect.
