Well, i don't have much in the stash of hot rod style of stuff, so i slipped out and got an old body off a mate, who has about 60 of these things built among his few thousand builds. I am using some inspiration from Troy Trepanier's 600hp 4wd Quadradeuce, but with a Deecee touch of insanity............ YES, a 4WD, 32, maybe with a roof job, as i like a lid on top, also might just go a bit silly in the engine compartment too.  This is all i have to start with, but i have an old chassis in the parts box, and the rest,...well, i will just have to start digging i suppose.   |

Well, the plan is slowly hatching, i found an old interior tub, grafted some door trims on to it, and made some seats fit aswell. Still needs a bit more tidying up and come up with a plan for the dash yet.    Also had a late night working on the roof transplant while watching the F1 . I think the roof is off a Vette of some sort....maybe....   The next problem to solve will be the driveline. |

yep - turning sweeter - I just knew it - what you planning for the front windshield? The A pillars I guess you would normally call these, but in this case, the stands for Aussie!! |

First up, THANKS ,  Secondly, Tom, i plan on using a tiny Aussie pillar up the side of the screen after i make on, and Duster, it scares me too sometimes, just where this stuff pops from. smiley-scared002 |

Well guys, i have come up with the basic idea of motivation for this beast. We will start with a small block Nascar engine, add a Siamese blower, (thats two of them joined together), and then top it off with a pair of turbo's, just to get all 4 of those wheels turning rather rapidly. And yes, the engine will all stay satin black, some plumbing to do yet, as for body color, not tooo sure yet, but a gunmetal grey is looking good at the moment.  |

Glad i got your attention Duster...... Thanks Tom and poet.  As i am going sinister with this one, chrome wheels would not suit the look, and not wanting to paint a good set of wheels, i dug up an old scummy set from the bottom of the box, and then narrowed them to suit a set of tyres from a Viper kit, once this was done, i painted them black. Next job was to make engine mounts, but that wasn't going to work well, so i made a solid engine cradle to hold it all solid.     |

W O W !!!!!
Some KILLER work going on their for sure..
The Roof is Awesome ( nice job there for sure, looks like it was made for it.. )
The Wheels look great ..
That Engine .. WHAT DO I SAY >>> A Real Beast ! ! Very nice..
The interior., Swaeeet. The Door panels look like some kind of Mopar , and the dash kind of resembles a Vette or possibly a Viper..The Seats --Very Cool..
All of that and a 4X4 to boot , just ridiculously OFF THE HOOK as the saying go's ...
Cant wait to see it done , keep up the great work...
Tom

Thanks guys, as you know, i like to go over the edge sometimes...... Well, got the 4x4 drive system sorted, with a corvette ondipendant rear end, with some prop shafts made from metal tube. Don't know where the front diff came from, but i also made a transfer case too. The paint is a Hyundai Metal Grey, it is the color i used on the bumpers on my 1:1 ute. Here is a mock up of what i will end up with...    |

Swwet. It look's like pure evil. If that came up in your rear view mirror you'd want to get out of the way before it chews you up and spits you out.
