Thanks for the comments guys. I'd love to see what kind of twisted creations you folks can come up with.

scoccia : I actually bleed Ferrari Red so I wholly endorse that color choice. Enzo is my hero.

Faust, slodder : Delbert was close with his funny car idea. My next project as of now is going to be a Kettenkrad modified into a drag bike, although a low rider is probably in the future. That's gonna take some planning and work.

AJLaFleche : I though of that as I was building, but I was hoping the chassis would fit a little better and integrate the shocks better. In the end it was too much work for me to saw them off (I'm lazy, and I was in a huge hurry to finish) for this project. I actually had intended to paint them black to match the chassis framework but forgot to do it (see the hurry note earlier).

Delbert : A woody!!! That's a GREAT idea!! I wrote that one down.

Building these two were great for clearing up some modelers block I had. Now maybe I can build some kits for an upcoming contest.

Excellent work TF! The perfect machine for the modern guy on the go who needs alot of firepower while he is mud bogging....YEEEHAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!
PS: don't give up on that other project we were joking about....But i like the idea of the chopper too, maybe with a flame paint job and a outlaw biker riding it.

hehehe I'm looking for some decals for it. I actually forgot about that one for a bit. The Ketten may be a while, so maybe I'll do that one in the meantime since I have the kit sitting right here.
