Oh yeah - I was just teasing. That car is pretty awesome. Although probably not as much as most projects, I'm sure there was a fair amount of scope creep even on that car.

Your next project going to be AWD?

Built Ford tuff with Chevy stuff! No wonder they liked it. That's pretty cool Ron.

Actually started measuring on the AMX, which would be doable. 335's all wheel drive= bad a$$. All until I started looking at transmission/transfer case. Wow, stupid money.

I think Rob Dickey put it best: Would you rather have a fast 2 wheel drive race car or a novelty all wheel drive one? I do think the all wheel drive car would be cool, just too expensive.

That's a great shot. Was cool to finally get to see this car in person. It was one of the first cars in the hotel parking lot and everyone that came in after commented on how cool it looked.

Looks like PK is having fun telling RS where to go! LOL


Love this car - the owner and his buddy aren't so bad either.


XOXO

Somebody needs to wash that thing, what a super fun and dirty weekend. It was great blowing the cob webs out, and hanging with the guys that built the hobby, (and Payton). lol

X2 Greg. I had a great time hanging out Ron and Payton too. The Muttstang is freakin awesome on the big track...RS took me out for a session. That G-force trans is crazy, like a grenade going off at each shift..watch your foot and legs on the tunnel though. Mine's a nice medium-well now

My pig is still dirty, but I drove it to work anyway! Thanks for the ride along again Ron. Next time, I'm wearing ear plugs and asbestos lined shoes
