That is looking good man. If you ever need an extra hand let me know. I've been wanting to start drifting but been working hard on my other build, a vr4. The Lexus is the DD for now, but by the end of the month it will be ready after over a year and a half.

@Kez: Thanks man... Pics dont do it justice... Im going to have it professionally shot after its done before I mess the car up drifting lol
@TK: Well make sure you take your time... Its not an easy car to get going on. I should have most of the car done in time for RD.2 but Ive been having reservations about driving because the car wont be properly shaken down. I might just drift my DD 2GS so that way I wont have to worry about wasting my entry fee lol

Yes sir... Just plugging away steadily... I want to hurry up and drive hahaha Oh I might have some kind of mini update soon that would involve me going to a hot rod shop. +100 internets if anyone can guess what I would be doing there.... hahaha

Nope but im glad someone actually guessed so I can say it lol I cut out some rear fenders @ a junk yard to make my own 50mm over fenders. Im going to the hot rod shop to have them keep it close to the original body lines then I am going to make a fiberglass mold so I can make some copys. Basically the same style as the Missile overs.

Minor update: Well the cage got started on... Its been a while because the shop had a priority job come through that needed to get finished so I let my spot go to the cool project that got finished. In return I got the attention that was needed for my car... Details... Details.... DETAILS lol Anyway back to the update... The cage is being started on and I got talked into a fuel cell so the rear firewall got taken out and it will have a custom firewall made so some weight is getting saved there.
Here are some shots of the cage and what not...
Thats really all I have for now... Im just getting some small stuff sorted out before the cage is going to be completed. OH! my little overfender project might have some life soon... Im looking for a perfect fender... all the ones at the junk yards seem to have dents lol
