Grant...The fiberglass dash cover looks like a newer design from the Big 5 Gen 5...Is the front nose piece a new design as well? Can we retrofit these on a Big 5 Gen 5 if we like the looks better?????

No, you can dune a stock 1600cc swing axle beam car and have a great time for less then the shocks cost on a 600hp car. But If I had the cash to buy a 600hp Funco they'ed alrady be building me one.
Love the look of this car! The front is a little funky to me but the backend looks sweet and that's all your going to see.

That is if I was driving

Not sure how I missed this previously. Bitchen looking chassis, Grant. Stuff the lil 3.0 Subaru from the other thread in here and I'd be a happy camper. Not that I'd complain if it had the LS1 (or a 1600 single port for that matter

).
