I like duct tape Jim!
Morris, I'm pretty sure that the frame will twist like a pretzel! I don't have a good way to tie it down to do a test. The body, to me, looks like a fast race car. The reality is that the kit wasn't built with high performance suspension or frame.
I bought this kit because I've always liked the look of the car. I have to decide whether to keep the build simple or build it for high performance. The fact that it's going to have Corvette suspension and LS power I'm pretty sure that I'll end up building a new frame. I think between building a lighter but stiffer frame and using an LS engine that I can get the final weight into the 1800lb range. I'm not building a race car. But if I can build it with performance to more closely match the looks I would be happy.
