Here's a couple of pictures of my 1/24 scale model body conversion. I extended the chassis on mine (which was extremely easy to do, btw).

Yeah, the car's called Chezoom and was designed and built by Boyd Coddington in 1994. He built it for "the head of the largest automobile corportation in the world" and has the entire running gear, including engine and all suspension from a '94 ZR-1 Corvette. Can you guess who the client worked for? Boyd's goal was to make a full-on custom car that could be taken to the nearest Chevrolet dealership to get service work done. Very ingenious.
I actually had the opportunity to see Chezoom and Boyd's other killer customs called the Aluma Coupe and the Smoothster in person a few years ago. These cars have to be seen to truly be appreciated. In case anyone is curious, here are a couple of links for pics of the real cars that I mentioned. Oh, and check out the selling price of Chezoom Chezoom Pics of some of Boyd's cars |

I extended my chassis to fit my ford focus.

You might want to make your picture a little bit smaller. It's hard to even figure out what you're looking at.

Nice pictures, did you cut your drive shaft or made a custom extended one? |
That is a sweet mod. I love that body. How did you extend the wheel base if you don't mind my asking?
