Default Mid engine C5 T70 scratch-build
Brought to dry-Sump monster home with a cool Cam-Am oil-tank I found.
This pic is before I reworked frame horns. Now they are flush with Bodywork.

Uh, yeah. I’m sure when this cool project is done, it’ll be worth a hell of a lot more than $20k. Taillight louvres are “just another mod”, this looks like someone’s blood, sweat and tears. Talk about disrespectful and ignorant.
