Lookin good Corz. But you really should paint that wheel chock to match the body. It's more original that way.

What a POS!!!!

Nice block of wood. Geez man, fix the ebrake. And that emblem, get the hammer out and contour it to the body.



Seriously, it looks real good. Looking forward to seeing come video of you lay the smack down on that fantastical Mervz again.

(my parking brake is a sandbag)

Looks good Corz. What else does it need to be ready to hit the road? it seems like you are almost there.

Thanks for the compliments, most of em anyway

I took it for a spin just now, which is reallly fun with no brakes :bb
they need to be bled if you have to ask.

The car sounds amazing, handles a little rougher with the 460lb springs (cut) and steers like i dont have power steering (maybe i need to top off the cap)

and yeah, I pulled a burnout the car pulls really smoothly considering nearly 400 ft lbs of torque, and it didnt seem to fall off, I probably revved till 4000 though.

I was at a stop sign, on my street, put the hammer down in first gear, convertor flashed, threw me back in the seat, car just started spinning, I backed out and put my foot back into it and it just MOVED
