You really put a lot of work into that and it shows. It's a pretty neat car. Any pictures of the back end?

I knew what ya ment. Funny I guess you could have taken "travel" either way. LOL.
The ride felt pretty smooth, not to bumpy at all.

You've got that 9 inch pumpkin centered up. Did you have to change the axle lengths?

It was a rolling chassis when I got it (1st pic). I do think it was shortened.

It's the new Dodge color 2012 -2015. It's called Gecko, Code PFM

When Porsche had that color we called it "Slime Green".
Coordinating colors are hard to find. You have done well.
Also interesting how far the front suspension settled when the car was finished.

Enjoy the Summer !

P.S. Shows you don't need chrome to draw attention. Nice way "hiding" the front cross bar with black paint.
