Thad is SO DANG COOL to see all the details coming together. The Exaust stacks are a SWEET touch!

PursuitSpecial, nope, the stacks are on permanent-like. And yes, the dummies will be on for the Autorama. 8-)

Armourer... um, hydraulics? That's a little too fancy for me... I've got to keep it simple & stupid. :) Besides, the front bumper piece supports the prisoner frames and it can't move.

Big Bopper Bart, loved your comment! Ha ha! :lol: :lol: :lol:

I spent a few hours yesterday getting the last of the pieces MIG welded on. Just about everything is there; I just have to touch up a few things and get her painted.

Here ya go, metalalien...

"Just needs paint" and about 100 pounds of Outback dirt. This thing is gonna be even more awesome when weathered. I don't think those people at Autorama are ready for this. :D

That's just one mean looking machine you've build. A class job. :twisted:

Don't forget the 'teeth' on the front bumper. that makes it look extra mean.

"UNDERSTEER" is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
"OVERSTEER" is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
"HORSEPOWER" is how fast you hit the fence.
"TORQUE" is how far you take the fence with you.
