Project Widow Maker

[HiBoost]

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?

Can i see some pics of it? =]

*seen it*
I'm going in a little different direction than he was.I'm starting out wit standard xmod body and parts =]

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.

[HiBoost]

do you have the front clip for the supra? and whats the condition on the body?

[TactiKal]

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.

Sounds good man! =] I can always hit eBay up for a GPM body lock. Oh listen to me I'm turning into an xmod guy. haha

[HiBoost]

Haven't Decided yet nothing to extreme cause its going to become a shelf queen lol

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.

Payed For The white supra So it will have a new home here with me soon! >=]

[HiBoost]

I Received my supra today!Didn't waste any time i got the good old roto zip out and got to cutting after changing the body kits to what i wanted!=]

Here is some pics while the first fender's glue is drying:






(just placement it been shaved more and fitted better) :]
=DDDD What yah think so far?

[HiBoost]

Fitted the back drivers side fender with a little shaving and shaping.Next step is to fill the inside fender gap wit putty and fill the fender ridge with glazing putty to make one smooth fender =]





??

[lol]

Love the supra! What putty you plan to use? Good luck. Love the quadruple post too.
