Welcome to the forum

I hope you living room is REAL SMALL because the dragster looks flippin huge man WOW

hey paul its good to finally see you here!! man tell them how much you got this for?
hehe!!i like the story of this dragster its from burnt to riches hehe!!

I got the car cheap, less then a 1/10 scale drag chassis kit costs.

Got the body over the weekend! Needs to be made a little shorter, but it's all good!

Thanks for all the kind words.

cool!! man shoot some vids when this thing gets running..the body is almost the same price of the
car hehee!

After looking it all over, I just did not see how the front end was going to fit how I wanted it to. The body would need to have an unrealistic front overhang, so I decided to shorten it from the front. I made a template for the front a-arms and steering linkage, and traced it on the body., I also made my cuts for the nose.

First time the body has rested on the chassis!!

Here is a rough mock up of how I am going to approach the front end. At this point, it has been shortened 7.5" and still has some more to go, but it's headed in the right direction.
