    Using a Toyota 22 RE/5spd, 8 inch Ford, 56 Ford pickup front end with discs. The cardboard represents the inside of the frame rails which are 11 gauge x 2''x 6''.

    Haywood- The body will be shaped to the conture of the frame and I'll use "aero screens".

    Curtiswyant- Two two barrels(maybe a turbo).
