Yeah I see it. Too bad the prettiest part of your car won't be seen.

Watson has all parts in hand now so things should start moving on the engine. I will check in a week or so and see how the block is doing (it was jacked up pretty good of course but fixable).

Appropriate for the 6 foot 8 Robster and that tank of a Furd he's throwing together.

Things are happening on my end, slowly but surely...



Just slightly wider than stock

Dave, it's great to finally see a progress pic.

Those arms are looooong. Are you going with 315's up front?

Yep. Already got 1 set of R6's and 1 set of A6's. 315 front / 335 rear.

We mocked up the front track width we are targeting on the other car in the shop with the 315's.

I like it, the long arm of the law...uh Jake.

Also, a little known fact; tires under a 315 are not constructed to withstand substantial powerwashing.
