ahah yea that car is out of Florida i was just using it as reference for color i would’ve gone had i continued with the project … financial situation is tight atm can’t afford to build 2 cars the 180 has a lot more potential… once I’ve got things rolling again i’ll make a proper build thread for the 180 but it won’t be anytime soon
