And here is a link to some kick pods i made for my neighbours car... http://www.newcougar.org/forums/showthread.php?t=8634     

i am having a hard time finding build up pics of parts i have made for people though...in a couple months i will have some nice pics of my brthers MR2...it is need of some major body work just to restore it to a point where i can start to build off of though...so that is gonna take me a couple weeks to fix up..since i dont have time to go at it daily or even for continuous hours for that matter..LOL the fenders are so bad i am just going to cut the flares off and build it out to be a wide body...LOL he doesnt know this yet though..it will just be easier then repairing the existing rust condition...

lack of significant disposable finances has made me push my kit until next fall...i will just have to drive around with a busted ass bumper all summer..  :(

I found a couple of other links everyone might find useful. The first one is urethane foam block supplier, the other is a site that shows the basic steps on how to go about building a car from foam all the way to fiberglassing the foam. For more indepth detail it also allows you to purchase planes the build the different vehicles.

Ahh, thanks, Ive been looking for those.  Im fabricating a motorized rack to where a floating amp rack / transparent sub box will float out from the truck...with the trunk lid by using the same concept as they are on those two cars.  Anyways, again, thanks for the reference site!
