I'm hoping it will be out this year, it sure doesn't look like it though.lol I've got a POS 6.0 Silverado engine tucked under my bench I may just blow the dirt out of it, cam it up, and stick in there just to work the bugs out. Or maybe I'll pull the Mustang engine freshen it up, and stick a Ford motor in that car, who knows.

Nice build....
I would see the rear wheels going a little bit outside the wheelwells...
They seem a little shy as is...and you would gain space for your coilovers.

The pics don't really show how much of a bulge is really there. This car I want to be much more mild on the outside then my Mustang is(as mild as it can be with 335's all the way around). I really want to see if with a little nip and tuck I can clean up the awkward lines of the AMX. Like the title says, its an Xperiment. The front unfortunatly wil have quite a bit more bulge then the rear due to the lack of transition area on the front, compared to the rear. That to me is the fun part of the build.

Yeah Scott, is it? hehe. Time for updates

You're right on Ron, it's needs to be subtle, well until you notice the 335s

Starting to get some of this stuff cleaned up, and figured out. This is definitely the most complete the car has been since I've owned it. You can kind of see what it is going to look like. The next thing, is to somehow getting the trunk lid hinged, due to the wheelbase change, and the big tars, the hinges are about 3" into the air portion of the tires when closed.
