1willy1 -- Dude, looks like you're making some nice progress. Keep at it man, those are going to be killer from the looks of it.

OP-- Thanks for finding this and sharing. There are a few of us that like the bolt on flared look and just waiting for something to come to fruition. I wonder if that Sweed is just doing his as a one off or if he'll be selling them. Certainly has potential.

not for everyone, but definitely aggressive, and it's good when people think outside the box and try new things. Would love to see the Rocket Bunny treatment applied to a C5 FRC body style.
