Man that thing looks SWEET, even in the blurry pic. Ya gotta get us some clearer shots... That's the type of ride that sparks up inspiration.

Yep, that looks like a Nova... I think

That picture does suck!

Seriously though, looks good. Can't wait to see a better pic, and I'd like to see how the rear end came out too.

LOL yeah it did suck, it was from the camera on my phone.

Anyway here is the nice photos, used the best camera we have at work. Hope you like pimps.

It needs a few minor touch ups but its almost finished.

Fuckin shit. I want it.

Yep, that definately looks like a Nova. I had to go back and look at blindrider's Nova for comaprison, and that's definately it. Cool, now I want one too.

That Charcoal is really hard for me to get the lighting right in pictures, your new pics capture it really well.

Those wheel look sick. Have you made that rear end functional yet?

Thanks pimps!!!

Yeah it is fully functional man. The axle is the same diameter as a 130 can armature, so I used the bushings from one to hold the axle in place. Then mounted the motor to mesh up against the axle gear and it works with very little friction loss.

I didn't get any good pics of the chassis tonight but I will tomorrow.

That kicks so much ass it's sick! You did an awesome job. I'd love to see a low-angle shot of the rear end to see how those big fat wheels look tucked under the chassis.

I'd rank that right up with Finks' S2000 to Del Sol conversion as far as creating a new body out of an existing one.
