Cool Project Widow Maker

I recently found some pictures of a supra on the net today and i want to try to recreate this beast!I'm going to have to scrum some cash together and find a complete gen 1 supra body and kit and a 350z kit.

Stage 1: ideas and buying ( this may take awhile lol)

Reference Pics:







I am going to be using my metal lathe to recreate the Apexi GT Muffler or a HKS muffler. !

What do you guys think?

Should be a pretty sweet project man! I have both the Supra body (white) and the mild portion of the 350z kit as well that I will set aside for you and we can work out a price. I'm waiting until I hit my 100th post before I can put up my big for sale thread, so i'd like to wait until then to sell them to you so I don't break any rules here.

The front clip i do not have, but it shouldnt be hard for you to hunt one down or build one from scratch. The body is absolutely mint! I have the complete white supra body kit for it as well which may help you out some also. I'll post pics later this evening when I get home or in the morning so you can see.

Here is his build thread. He even has the same 1:1 photo as you. Dr. Kustom does some of the best body work around. This is a hard act to follow. Good luck with the build, post lots of photos and Ill be watching.
