Original plans were to: truck it, and run cantilever suspension. But things definitely got added on mid-project. Not to mention this was all done in my other friends garage, where our most complex tools were: grinder, welder, and some drills.

Mike has been drifting for a couple years, here is one of his videos from last season:

Lots of time and effort has been put into this, including the help from 10+ people.

We have a few weeks left until season starts and the motor is going in this weekend, along with other goodies.

But anyway, i figured some people might be bored like me and enjoy some pictures of the progress so here it is:

At the very begining:

Cutting the hatch area:

Doing some stitch welding:

Yours truely doing some cutting:

fabbing up the frame rails:

Rear beam where cantilever's will be mounted:

Main hoop in:

Rear doglegs:

Back firewall in and rear lid:

Wheel tubs:

Body work, body work, and MORE body work, thank god that's pretty much done

And this is how it sits now:

We're getting there. If there is any interest i'll keep this updated.

I thought everyone in TCL was 6'1, 195lbs of adonis-like muscle with striking good looks, and made at least $136,000/annum? This is just shocking to me.

Knight Rider wasn't evil.

His windshield wipers were. It didn't come up much in the show though.

Glad I'm not the only one that got that.

That has to be a Futurama reference.

not yet, will have more pics when completed.

Don't forget the left turn signal from Charles Manson's VW Bus.

Thats a cool setup, can't wait to see it done.
