I am just lovin this beast. But I agree, the stance needs a little touch to take it from really cool to Flippin Great. Make em' drag, seems to be my new motto. Can not wait to see what you do with the finishing touches to this awesome ride. HH

With all those hip and roof lines arching down at the back, it'd have to make the stance an awkward one to get right. I bet if you measure the clearance at the front and rear they could be the same and still it'd look raked. Personally I think it looks great as is and I can't wait to see this one develop. Any colour planned yet?

Any colour planned yet? OK< I just got this shifter in the other day, so I had to show it off, it actually aint a shifter at all, I couldnt see paying the High price over at JFs, so I ordered a game set online from ebay, there called Dark Heaven, Legends, Reaper, there game pieces, and there perfect scale, and I fixed the ride hight as best as I could, with out going to insane, still not where I actually pictured it, but I will add some lake pipes, and bellflowers, should fix it right up. As for kolor, the body will be Black Pearl, and Black Cherry Red Pearl, Metalic, and yeah those are the wheels of choice...

Did you drop the end in the above pic as I cannot see any of the rear rim now? I was just wondering about the rims as some modellers use different ones during mock up. Looks cool a nice build.

Yeah Monaro I did drop the rear more, I had to, well go as low as I could, like I said it isnt as low as I pictured it in my head, I mean I could thro some 13s on it from a lowrider kit, which would slam it, but no I used the same tire wheel combo as the front, but I'm still thinking about cheating....

I don't think I'd do the thirteens on the back. This car is much too heavy for those, in my opinion. This is an absolutely beautiful build you have going here! And your color choices sound like they are right on the money!!
