Since i finally moved into the current century and have a phone i can post with thought I'd go ahead and share the new shell......... this car had been around for a while but just became mine officially last week going to try my hardest to have it finished for April and make a run at my dreams8-)
I had a feeling you'd end up with it Will. What are your first plans for it? Will you be pulling your plant setup from the Green Machine to put into it and reverting your battalion chariot to a factory 4AG?
For now I'm trying to build this car from scratch. I was throwing around the idea of using the scion tc motor but due to time and money constraints I'll be sticking with the f20 for now. Hopefully i won't have to rob anything off of winki (currentwarwagon) and start dailying her again.
