I see in your galleries that you already have a set of custom wheels for it.
I was thinking a set of these in Race Gold would look right at home on the little beast.

It'll weigh about 2400 with me and a tank of gas in it. Do you really think I need more power than I can get from an LS2, Kooks and a custom tune?

Wow - it's been a long time since I posted anything here.
Chassis is done.

Finally...

Now it's off back to the paint shop to meet up with the body again.
