I had the same issue especially after i took this photo:
The rear section looks mahoosive but after panelling it in, it looks normal now:
How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

I just got a text from my dad asking if we can sort the brakes out next so he can drive it up and down the drive. That should cheer me up!
eh?! you should be texting him asking!
i'd be happy enough with just pushing mine down the hill to start with, then towing it back up
we did turn it round by towing up up the hill to the flat bit then rolling it back down tot the driveway which was fun surprisingly the steering
behaved as it should, despite no apparent caster angle
hmm, my brakes aren't far off being done... in fact, they just need filling and bleeding... i don't really want to fill them with fluid
knowing they'll have to be drained and done again, so i'll wait til i've got the axle rebuilt, after i've finished welding and
painting it... and got a few bits for it back

Think about how much money you've spent (Wroughly) then go down to a sports car dealer and find something with simillar performance for that
money, your car will look amazing buy comparison. I wanted an MR2 for awhile, but to be able to insure it I had about £1500 as my budget, and the cars
I saw for three times this were awful.
I've not started yet so I can't say much on kits but I do frequently think I need a bigger more powerful car, but then I'll be out
on a twisty road with noone around and I'll remember that I like my car, I worry about other people damaging it, I'm the only person to
drive it (apart from FIAT employies) so I imagine a car I'd actually built would bring on stronger versions of this.
