Those two cars were amazing.
Not sure if I like the wind shield, I like the visibility on the front end.
But they do look sweet all closed up with sheet metal.
What were the specifications on the car - LS What? They both had Albins Trans.
Why the perforated aluminum on the bottom versus the diamond plate?
What is the price tag, if you do not mind me asking.

Those two cars were amazing. [/color] Thanks we think so as well . These are both going to Royalty in UAE. They have really discovered what makes driving a FUNCO so fun .
Not sure if I like the wind shield, I like the visibility on the front end.Foam a driving perspective ,Personally I don't care for a hood and windshield either. From a cosmetic stanpoint it's hard to argue with it.
But they do look sweet all closed up with sheet metal.
What were the specifications on the car - LS What? They both had Albins Trans.Stroker ls2's . The red one has a 415 by Cand G and the Black one a 425 ci by CBM . Albins "H" 5 speeds in both. Communications, Beard RX2 interior , bodies by Larry Stork , 3 " Kings ,934 Stainless perforated flooring, Auxillary fuel tanks, Vision X baja style lightbars .Twisted Image paint

How about some pictures of these bad boys!
Here's the red one...
I will post some up tomorrow . Chad has them in the dunes testing right now . The boys are supposed to take photo's but can you really trust 20 year olds with toys like these to stop long enough for a picture or two.
We'll see

Before, during and after
So the windshields were added after the cars were done? Did you add tabs or were they planned for ahead of time? Nice cars.

No , the windshields have been in the design all along . They had to take them out because of the rain drops . Imagine that...... rain in G in June
Wow! Those have got to be the best looking Big5's yet... you guys should be proud!
Nicely done!

I am also thinking of silver frame with a black panels like this one.

Can one of you Photoshop guys take the graphics of the Red UAE car and put it on Bohica's Car.
Then change Bohica's car to black and to the same?
Then make one with silver frame with the balck panels?
I will owe you a ride when and a cold one.
Thanks for the Help,
Chris

Can you change the light bar to gray as well.
How about silver as well? With black panels from the UAE car.
