Here is the latest shape of the rear bumper. I changed the profile of the lower rear wing corners again. They were squared before. Now they sweep under and look much better! There's more info in my build thread but here are some pics.

I should be getting my LC next week. Once funds are available I will be ordering some bumpers. Would you be willing to give a deal if I get front and rear bumpers? Any plans on making a roof rack?

That sounds great. And yes a rack is coming after the rear. .ill look into what i can do for people that order both once i have final pricing on the rear.

Thanks!

Thanks J,
Hopefully out this evening. The iv fluids helped lots.i was really dehydrated even with drinking a good amount. Still waiting for some tests. But its most likely viral and just have to ride it out. I hate hospitals and im never sick. Only ever come in for repair work. Lol.

One cool thing while in here bored. I scored this off Craigslist. The guy is gonna hold it for me.

funny how everyone is afraid of the scorpions and snakes in our parts. They don't do half the damage
that ticks, flies and mosquitoes do. At 14 I was catching rattlesnakes and scorpions to sell to a venom lab. Never got stung or bit while "working" but I've had a few scorpion stings from everyday chores.
Had to put a stop to the snake hunting. One day I got home late. I didn't have time to drop a sidewinder I'd caught so I stuffed it in a one gallon jar and hid it by the washer and dryer. I woke up to my mom screaming that next morning. She didn't see the snake at first but she heard it. Scared the crap out of her. She thought I was out mowing lawns for money

Can I ask where you ordered the book from? I looked on Amazon and this book is going anywhere from $250 to $700. IS this truly the price?
