It needs only all-wheel-drive...

(then he will not have to release the gas pedal in hair-pin turns)

I have not been on this thread (or the forums for that matter) in a while and this project continues to be incredible. Machining the dash, the touch screens, paint scheme options, and especially that hardtop!

This whole project is fascinating. I hope the 1,000 miles through the U.S. includes a quick trip through The First State. I'd love to see Menace in person.

Those headlights look like they cost more to make than my entire car.

WoW!

Fantastic!

As a machinist, I'm amazed at the detail on parts that won't even be seen except for the bezels!

(I can't even afford to be JEALOUS.....LOL!!!!)

Your build is so over the top I cannot imagine. Im not being negative in anyway, its just so far beyond my budget. Are you building it for the show circuit?
