Well, I am back to work on the bird. Haven't touched it for months and now I am in full swing since I have no other jobs. Kinda nice, would like to get this done. I decided on the name "WILD TURKEY" for the build. I know it sounds like many bird related names, fire chicken etc.. But this really fits. Me and my brother are probably the biggest private costumer for Wild Turkey 101 proof. In fact this car was concieved with wild turkey in our hands, on the rocks with water of course...
Seriously tho, my brother buys it buy the case. sips on it every night and has a ward robe of Wild Turkey t-shirts. We even toured the distillery.
So here is where I left off, mocking up the tires...
I know some of this build seems backwards but the ebb and flow of money have caused many mind changes in what we can and can't do, not my decisions.
I have started to shape the front end to what I have envisioned. I have always hated the stupid rubber gaskets for the front and the endless adjustments to make it fit, I am building a one piece front now. I will pull a mold off this and make a piece that is part carbon fiber (original bumper) and the rest fiberglass, painted body color. I have some halo/projector headlights and fog lamps to install. I do plan on making more parts off this to sell. Here is the pics so far....
