Great updates Will. I thought the green car was going to be your street rig? What are the plans for it then?

[mooreofit]

u gonna be driving this at the nst event?

[nt66]

I am trying to make the nst event but my main goal is to make fd long beach in april. I am planning on making the green car/winki a street car but with time running out on the new build I took her apart temporarily. She will be back at some point.
