My FG Build so far.. (WEE UPDATE)

Hey folks, well i started putting together my FG today with all the stuff i bought through ebay whilst i was offshore, so here it is in pics,,
The front end on,, this is a touring car front end and went on with no problems, just need to figure some way of making a new mount/brace for the side guards or may just take them off and make a brace from Carbon fibre just to strengthen up the front end a bit as its gonne be used mainly for on road/car park bashing next to my house..

Cheers for lookin,, let me know what use think good or bad.. all comments and ideas welcome...

WEE UPDATE: Got the radio gear in and all set up, also done a few cosmetic things like the stainless fuel tube sleeving, also used the original roll cage front bars to help brace the front end a bit, just shortened them a bit then bolted them to the front shock mount, still unsure with what to do with the side guards????..i'll give her a run tomorrow, didnt have time today..

hi

looking :cool2: the bees knees mucker like the xcan and now you have done the pics we will definitely want to see the vid
also with woking off shore you got plenty time to do the vids 2weeks 3weeks or so
and you could swop the front tower around move it to the front about 3cm and then you will have room for the mt tower that should work hey presto:2guns:
 
Nice work, what do you have in mind for a body?

Takes alot of time and patients to take on a project of putting parts together that were never ment to be.

Looks good though.:celebrate:you'll be bashing soon.
 
Cheers for the comments guys..
Sickboy, not sure about using the mt tower, might give it a go..
Clubin, i'm going for a stadium shell not sure of a paint scheme yet may get someone to do a custom paint job on it for ma.. watch this space!!!
