Jorge78, i wish i could take credit at what you have seen. But you must have my project mistaken with someone else. My pics only show the back half under construction.

Here is my setup. Sorry for taking up all this room with the pics again.
I like the credit, but you probably have me confused with John (novanutcase).
Now there is a setup.
Thank you Jorge78 for your comments tho.

nothing wrong with a tubbed car with a sick stance...i think the only reason why the tubbed scene got old was that everyone wanted one but couldnt get a motor to back it up, so you had a damn 8 slick car kick the crap out of a car with 15" slicks in the back..after awhile it became a look..that and the price of unmolested cars shot up...

very nice project!! caint wait to see more progress pics
