Looks great! So I guess the next mod will be a wider trailer to fit it on. *smiley*

Love all this one-off machining you're doing! Do you have all your own CNC gear I take it? What's happening with the bottom arms & tie bars?

Haha, I wouldn't mind some shots of it when you get it fitted. :)

Loving the CNC work, ive got someone wanting some custom shock mounts if that would be something you would be interested in?

Looking very nice! I'm considering doing the interior/exterior a split colour scheme like this. I was erring towards all one colour but now I've got re-think after seeing this, damn it.

Interesting to see what you've done with the arms. I'm working on something similar but I'm trying to retain the doughnuts. My original idea for the rear was the same as yours actually, move the stub axle higher, but i've gone a different route now. Yours looks wicked!

Looking good Jim, did you fabricate the top and bottom arms yourself?

Not had much time for updates, a few of you saw the car at Bingley, here are some photos for those that didn't. I'm not trying for thre bling bling fake body kit look. but after making the car 4" wider and longer than it was last year, needs must.
