A car that looks like a car............ a novel idea.

Run 8 inch tires, lose the spoiler and open up the nose and we would have a lot less dust and rutted up race tracks.

That company makes a Mustang nose too. I think it's called AR Bodies. Look on the muscle cars link on their website. It shows asphalt cars but the noses are impact resistant plastic. They make tail sections too.

Looks great! Unfortunately it is almost 3x the cost of a Performance Body. If anyone wants to sponser the cost of the body I will be more than happy to put it on and even have Ed stripe it up like a factory paint scheme.

AR Bodies plastic camaro nose is $75/side, thats cheaper than an MD3. The roof is fiberglass, but the rest of it looks like aluminum and poly to me. It's just really well done. Here's a budget version for you.  Bodies_and_Accessories.jpg   68.91KB   222 downloads

AWESOME Car!

That looks very cool, but for a limited car it's an awful lot like a late model.

I did a little research on this car.  552300_2557464954504_198876712_n.jpg   157.5KB   71 downloads  530597_2557461434416_2030135631_n.jpg   197.04KB   84 downloadsjpg] It's owned and driven by custom car builder John "Keef" Keith, owner of Keef's Rod and Custom in Ridgeland, MS. The nose and tail are AR Bodies plastic pieces and the roof is fiberglass. The rest was hand built out of sheet aluminum by Keith (probably not a big deal for a custom car builder).  406456_2339764432127_1720051927_n.jpg   92.96KB   70 downloads  419869_2444807498138_1881154004_n.jpg   97.54KB   74 downloads  416959_2474250074184_1878599000_n.jpg   89.65KB   77 downloads  394431_2480663114506_1965705365_n.jpg   113.25KB   62 downloads The car was raced at Jackson Motor Speedway in the Super Street Stock division.
