Astounding amount of thought and engineering into this project but I can't get over how much this thing must weigh when fully loaded. That has to be easily over 1200lbs of kit. That poor frame lol.

@ciko_pancho8982 Жыл бұрын

My thoughts too. I’d love to do all of that to mine, though I know the engine will suffer big time from all the extra weight. Maybe good reason to drop a V8 into it 😅
