That's a very cool chop - it does give it a Stude vib. 

Not trying to put the cart before the horse, but have you decided how you're going to deal with the side windows?

Not sure at this point. I have ordered a new '08 rule book to make sure that my plans will not have to change due to class requirements.

Ray , you've got it all goin' on. :-o....K.G's are beautiful things....often it's hard to make something that has such pure lines look any good if you "get into it" too much....the chop and stretch looks great!.....it could be a really special car and with your experience it looks like only time is all you need. :wink:

you'll be a legend amongst the vee-wee crowd.........best of luck , can't wait to see the finished product.
