I agree with everyone above Greg, The glass will make a huge difference. And like Marty said the wheels in my opinion are timeless, but you have to like it more than everyone else.:)

I think that the body line that drops to the rear is throwing off the stance too.... seems that the back needs to come up just a hair over "level rockers"?

+1 on the rear glass.

As far as wheels, I like them but if you did a mixed finish on them with some darker color in there it might make it look less 90's street rod. there is alot of cool components to that wheel and a ton of different ways you could do a two tone finish on that wheel!

I absolutely think it's too low... but that is totally adjustable -- and we are trying to see how low the Ironworks frame can go... Obviously -- Pretty low!

Rodger took the pics I've been whining about - while laying on the floor - with a FISHEYE lens... that distorts the view from being on the ground AND a fisheye stretches things in a funny way.

Trust me guys -- WE know a stance... so no need to break out the panel paint and lace yet!

:rofl:


Now where'd I put those hydraulic fittings.... :_paranoid

I just ordered a chain steering wheel for you also. Don't worry we can have it dipped in Gold for you.

You guys still using that cheap Gold - here in Chicago we use Platinum, Scandium and even that Carbon fiber stuff.

Gold it out man to much shinny bling

Greg,

I think the stance looks great but I think the car could be raised up an inch or so. I also think that when the front bumper is put on you would be able to tell how low it really is. I really like this build and cant wait to see it when its done! :thumbsup:

Musclerodz 03-02-2012 03:25 PM

its not any lower than a new corvette, just twice as long as one.

WSSix 03-02-2012 05:45 PM

I wouldn't raise it a bit. I love how long and low it is. Yeah, I like a lot of tastefully done low riders too. In the end, its your car though. Raising it a touch won't hurt the looks either. The car is going to be awesome that much is a given.

GRob 03-03-2012 12:48 PM

This could be epic but right now it looks too low. But the concept is brilliant. Really looking forward to this one. Check out Porsche for some metalLic browns.
