If you put the right wheels and tires on it. You’ll have no problems gaining traction. And if you don’t mash on the throttle everytime you touch it. you won’t have any problems.

Making my own mounts. FOr a few reasons:  
A) Cheaper  
B) 0 wait time  
C) No shipping  
D) Trust my own welding over someone I’ve never even seen before.  
E)Yes, different mounting position.

Yes, a widebody is in order. It may just be fender flares at first. 'Til I find what I want… Or make what I want 😃

Yes, the plans are quite big. But you either go big, or go home. Original plans were for a VH45-TT… But I was having trouble finding one.  
I’m Aiming to have the car running and driveable by the next Bing’s meet. Will it happen? Hopefully…
