Awesome build:icon_tup:

turned out great. love how the hood came out.

must be nice to actually be driving it now.

It is, but still a bunch of shakedown. Also needs to be tuned, which I don't have the money or time for right now. So it's just cruising and shows for a while. Spring time it will really be ripping it up.

I forgot how much the steering sucks ass. I'm looking into a Rack/Pinion system using a GM gear from an electric column car (I'm a GM tech). Got a few different cars I see that have simple, rear steer, high angle steering gears. And they are tough, as the motor is on the column, and they see all the torque on the system (also means the ratio is high/tight).

Here's an example of s Pontiac G6 electric rack.

Good looking car,like the hood vent also. Needs some type of spoiler/wing to balance out the back of the car. What have you done with the taillights,are they blacked out?

Very Nice! I love how you can't see any wires under the hood. I'm sure you covered it in your build but what offset are your wheels?

I think they are 38 front and 35 rear.

And there wiring isn't tucked, it's in there. There is one small loom on the drivers side of the bay for the front lights and the ignition coil power.
