It's getting very close! The videography sucks, but Kelly Moss Racing is building a "killer car"! Install the seats and wheels, and its almost done.

Any suggestions for a license plate with 7 characters max?

  • EXRACER

I can hardly wait!!




Just a few more little bits





The original sports seats





Autobahn made it all new!!





Yes, it is a '75 but I like the look of the ducktail. The whale tail was redone also.





Oh so close. The Carrera graphics, some new brake ducts and hoses, the front spoiler lip and we are in business!

Default Brake ducts don't fit!?


So close but the new brake ducts don't fit. They bang into the brake line tab when the car is on the ground!

Suggestions?



If I trim it back there's nothing left to attach the hose.

WOW! This is an epic build!

Can you relocate the brake line tab? Move it over and bend new lines?

It's the factory location. So don't want to change it.
May have to fab new ducts.
