I noticed that Webshots is now denying access to the picture. I've attached the copy from my cache so you can still see it. BTW, I saw the car at Autorama and I have not seen a car with so much metal flake in it. The car had to be made of carbon fiber to make up for the weight of the flake! There's some nice work done on the car too, the fabrication and packaging is well done. Congrats.

I think they can swap a "stock" style rear in the car, I heard something about this, which makes it still stock suspended

I realize that. It's called a joke. But, I wouldn't expect it to be glass, maybe crushed diamonds.

Yup. A friend of mine has this in his L/S Mustang. He can run either a 4-link or ladder bar setup. Not the cheapest thing in the world to do, but when you're looking at 170+ mph, money isn't a big object anymore.

I thought I heard someone say it looked like a paint job from a "Ranger Bass Boat"...............just what I heard. Meaning lot's of flake, like they paint those boats, very nice car though. Should be very, very, very fast. Well ahead of the rest of us!!

Ya, I caught wind of the Bass Boat comment as well. Comments from the crowd at Autorama. I can only dream of having a car as bad or fast as that one is!

Great job Team Harcore!

Oh yea, I liked the black better too.

VFN is doing all their stuff in carbon now if that's what you're looking for. Hoods, bumpers, deck lids, etc...if they made it in glass, they can make it in carbon now.

Sweet! Gary, what color is that thing... It's damn close to the color I'd want to shoot a car in. For me (being a U of Delaware grad) you'd have to mix in some gold flake . Can't wait to see those build pics. You all going to Cecil Co. MD for a street car shootout with that thing?? First saturday of every month starting April. Quick 8 big tire and 10.5.
