    Very cool! Nicely done. Did you add sub-frame connectors or any re-enforcement under the body?

    Thanks Everyone, I worked long and hard over the years. I'm sure you can relate. To answer some quetions, no, there is no reinforcement anywhere on the car. It has a little flex, but it's just a 200 so it's ok for now. The car does have a functioning top. It's not power of course. It comes completely off and fold up to store in the trunk. I will upload pics of it as soon as I can. I will also post pics of the interior and engine.
