Chris the car looks awesome.

I am also building a 2nd gen for my Daughter for when she graduates. However my Daughter is 9.

Couple things i've figured out with Ride Height. Once you get the rear tire where you want it and it looks good. The front becomes a bigger problem. With a 26" tall tire up front there isn't much room for suspension travel as the tire hits the inner fender.

If you look at the formula Rad Rides is building they have the car set at 4" ride height and the inside of the fender ( no inner fender ) from memory was only 29" from the ground.

ps - Hurry up and post up some more pics as I want to steel some of your idea's.
