Now that looks the doggs danglies.

By far the best shorty i have seen, as where things link the doors and rear 1/4 windows have been shortend it kind of some how still makes it look in correct proportion.

Roof chop FTW! Sprint style!

Then you'll be able to put it in your hand luggage!

Hi.. thats a nice shorty your making and what is the colour going to be..................

I am not 100% sure what colour my mate is having yet but i think it could be getting some metal flake.

That looks interesting, will it be using separate seats 'n how much shorter is it?

That looks interesting, will it be using separate seats 'n how much shorter is it?

Iirc it is about 22" shorter than standard and i think the back seat will be a speaker box setup with a pair of bucket seats up front.
I will put some more pics up through the week, hopefully.

Any progress?

Thats is cool. Heres an idea. I think you should make it look like a mk1. Give it a nice pale blue colour with all the chrome bits. Would look wiked.
