Dose anyone know any other websites on this car and owner. There is a wealth of knowledge to be learned here. I would love to see some build pictures.

It certainly is an interesting build.

Dave, I'd very happy to publish a How It Was Done on this car. Would you like to volunteer to contact Ed and ask if he'd be willing to submit better photos and more detailed specs? The photos in this article are dramatic, but they're way too dark and too small. I found it frustrating to wade through all that small talk and then not be able to see the interesting technical details. Almost made me wonder if they were hiding something...

Wow I didn't know this car was upgraded.
There is more information about the build at the fronline website with pictures at an earlier stage

This car is a dream
