Full on race cars are a PITA... I'd rather build you a strace car.

cosigned, strace car was coined by Vince. What's a strace car?


The quarter mods came out looking great. Good job.

The car had a section from what looked like a door screen. I was going to replace the valance but decided to do something with the gaping hole.

20 ga cold rolled, bent shaped, made two flanges and opened up the centers. Added a 1/8" mesh and decided to leave the rivets silver. It plays off of the wheels well.

Better than a "reet-car," that's for sure.
