Wow, I can't beleve it has been this long since I posted, and since we actually worked on this one! We did a mock-up stretch last night just to get the rear wheels in he right place. There's going to be a complete redo of the rear suspension geometry (still trangulated four-link, I think), but we can now start mounting the motor and making it actually run. First, we'll stretch the bed to fill the gap. This gives it more conventional pickup truck proportions, and us the (108") wheelbase to really push the (performance) envelope.

In a week or so, all the bodywork will be recreated in carbon fiber. More to come...
