iLL Garage S13.5 build

We started with a BARE s13 chassie which was gutted completely and brought back to life. The car's intent is road course, but i'm sure we'll be doing other stuffs with it (hard parking Razz

). I didn't want to build a car that was strictly for one thing. Right now as things change, get the car dialed in (motor/suspension tuned), maybe take it to some events and see where it goes. This car is not the cleanest by any means but will be built perfectly for my driving needs. Ultimately, I just wanted to build a car that i've always wanted. Enough, here are some pix..

Dodge Viper sizes. Road race, some drag probably, maybe some drifting. Tommy isnt a fan of a lot of stretch (though it would look better and the car can be lower angel

)

sick car liked the look of the rear fenders, i heard somethin about customizing them to make them bigger? what was actually done?
