I didn't see where you mentioned you cut the rear and reformed the fenders and rear lights either. As tommy pointed out, your playing possum!

Hey guys, Cory can paint too. Unfortunately he had to paint the buggy several times due to an unexpected problem but he finally worked it out.

Cory, have you figured out the front wheel situation yet? Gonna cut the front end?

Welcome to the site. thats a bad a$$ buggy.

Haven't decided on the front end yet. I'm running out of time for the classic, so I think I'll go as it is for now, and maybe down the road cut a couple of inches out of it.

I'll try to post up an abbreviated build thread to show its tranformation.

and PS never use a Sharpie on layout. It bleeds through everything, even black.

I would be afraid to cut the tunnel as you were contemplating. My luck it would give up the ghost as I was going down the freeway at 70.
