Looks good, lots of nice work on that.
I like how they are driving those little cars like they are 4x4's. But, you gotta do what you gotta do, and they sure did.
Yes, parts still are available, but don't expect them to be as cheap as a SBF or SBC.

This is how I did it by myself. Of course it was only a truck cab. But hey, just some ideas. [IMG]

Lots of nice cars there, looks like a fun show. Thanks for posting.

Well, all I have is an engine and transmission and truck and I'm already 3 grand deep. And the truck was free.
