thinking about something more like this
working out how to use the fender tops as a 'hood side/grill"

That would take a serious amount of time and money. [;) [;)


if you have to ask then you are probably not ready


:D

time is not a problem being a shop teacher
and I have plenty of extra hands

we shortened and dropped this bus last year
recycled a lot of scrap yard parts
folks would be surprised how resourceful we can be

For fun, try swapping the fenders left to right, rotated 90 degrees (headlights up and down with sides of fenders as a cowl top).

cool idea
we will start mocking up as soon as we trim off the qtrs
there is no telling what goofy combinations the kids will come up with
 
we made a little progress today
just the first mock up

playing with the wheel base and transition
we will reshape the front of the fin to flow into the fender
and use a piece front the front doors that will allow the second body line on the fender to fade away

working on the overall look and wheel placement
looks like we may need to slide the rear tire back a little from this angle

I like your design way better than the green one. It looks ok until your eyes get to about the front of the engine and then everything just goes to heck. The deuce shell is wrong, it sets too high, wheels aren't in the right place........
 
set the junk out side to get a visual
