So ever since i seen this car from jd ive always wanted to have it. Its a fairly simple car nothing to crazy but theres a few custom parts he made, which is what i liked about the simple car. Jd did alot of the custom milling for his AE teammates. Ive have pretty much everything to complete except for the extreme motor and the body which im hoping you guys could help me identify.

I forgot to take pics of the beginning of build but will take them from this point on, hope some guys like it as much as me😉😂.

Since I didn’t want to ruin good cross brace because its the first generation design snd not easy to come across I decided to chop up and old 10l chassis and cut the brace to his design. The nerf bars I also cut out of that junk chassis. Ill try to share the car im replicating. Its in this forum.

Very cool build! Can't wait to see how it turns out.

The body you're looking for is a Protoform Nissan P-35 btw...

Yes, can we get someone to re pull the P35? I have several chassis that remain naked without them. I thought that car was really neat and clean as well. Will be neat to see your progress👍

You can do alot with a Dremel cutoff wheel and a drill bit. And only you will notice the "flaws". Looks great!
