Looks sweet :thumbsup:

Man, that looks so crisp and clean. I think that'd be a good time to just build up a rolling chassis like that and put it in my basement just to look at the complexity and the beauty of form following function. I realize that it's a whole lot more fun to have it under a car so you can actually drive it, but that just looks so sweet like that.

Welcome! That looks fantastic! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Why are they letting you build that car in that hospital?

[jy211]
