    I too was thinking they looked like shrunk down jack stands!

    When I seen them, It made me THINK TO MYSELF, hmmmm, what a great idea, to have them designed like something (jack stand) that we already know is capable of supporting a heavy load. Thats why I though they might be pre-fab. Seems a good use of tested material/idea from jack stand engineers. Even if the idea was not taken for a jack stand.

    They look very professional indeed.

    The body I found near Huntington beach last year, it had been made up of bits, its a sports coupe but with a sedan back window, it needs a belt line adding to make it look right

    I like the headers... and the motor mounts... AND those swoopy headlight stands!

    Ya see gentlemen, it doesn't take an iron cross to build a cool car!

    Pete:
    As I told you earlier in the post, the car speaks volumes.
    I just can't put a finger on one thing, it's several, the whole package.
    As you have heard, many more pictures are a must (please?).
    Again, Excellant creativity.

    it sucks,

    like a monkey through twenty feet of garden hose.

    and that's good [​IMG]

    'would look awsome running flat out on a dry lake somewhere,

    but the roads around here might slow you down a little.

    got skid plates and casters under there?
