Not afraid of much are ya!?

"Think I will just weld these two cars together that God and Engineering never meant to go together." And cause that's way to boring, "I am going to do the welding outside in the middle of a dry grass field."

never thought of the contained tug of war but it will defiantly be done now. and as far as just welding the front and rear together I know it looks like it but I did post a build thread so you guys can see how it went together

I got the pcm unlocked yesterday and tuned it. did a drawing and am having the fuel tank built. im gonna get the car in some time today and start working on boxing in the rear subframe and working on the fiberglass in the rear. still need to wire the stereo system. hang the rear radiator but my biggest hurdle is gonna be getting axles made.

I can see one project working, but..how do you manage two builds of such scope at the same time?

In my situation, time wife and money would be gone.
