Now that looks like fun. That would come in handy around my house with all the roads ripped up.

can you imagine pulling into work wearing a suit and driving that?

when we gets it all finished we are getting it licensed to use it on the road, not too much more to do with it. single lights, hand brake, windshield and wiper, seat belts, and rear brakes and a fue more little things

That looks like a fun project as well as a fun ride!

Nicely done. And ya, looks a lot of fun to be had.

Id do that... and then smile at all the others in BMWs and Mercedes Benz... then click the key fob and let the security system arm with a couple "chirps" and walk away laughing underbeath

mwuahahaha

hahahahahahahahaha!
