Got a good look at this awsome rig at Starbirds show. The workmanship is second to none. Keep up the good work & keep us posted on race dates!

TJ · 01-16-2011, 07:07 AM

Again nice job. Glad I got to see it at the show this weekend. Bought my tickets!

JeepnTodd · 01-16-2011, 08:54 PM

Great work on the build!! This is an awesome rig that is being driven by a great guy for an excellent cause. I have been touched by this disease and want it cured so people don't have to deal what it brings. Go get it Levi!!

That light bar looks like it has tailgate style ends? As in rotate 90* and it pops right out?? Killer idea.

is that the final position for the fuel filler neck?

at tech for the reno stampede i was nick named the fuel nazzi by jeff...and to me it looks like there is way too much oportunity for the driver/hot radiator/hot shock reservoir/electrical components to be soaked by a gas can that missed the mark in a fuel stop.

Yes, it's mounted where Levi wanted it. You do make a good point. We will just be real careful and use a BIG funnel.

EyeWin · 01-17-2011, 06:41 PM

The light bar is one of my favorite components on the car, rediculously simple. Oh and the rest of the car isn't bad eaither.
Great turnout at the show. We collected enough donations to pay a researcher for 7 days. Which doesnt sound like much in those words, but in the grand scheme of things, thats huge. We are doing this all year long until SEMA show in November so we are hoping that we can raise enough to pay for a researcher for an entire year.
The LLS was very happy, and what a great way to gain exposure for our sport as well.

406 YJ · 01-17-2011, 06:51 PM

What you guys have done is a first and every time I look at this thread all I can think is FAWKN AWESOME. What a great idea. Great bunch of people doing something for people in need. That is life!! Hats off to you

EyeWin · 01-17-2011, 06:52 PM

By the way, Daryl Starbird himself was present for the dedication. He has custom built over 100 show cars. He shook my hand and said "what a fantastic job your builder has done, well put together, that's a car!"

Great job Ryan and Don

OKMudn · 01-17-2011, 07:36 PM

I'm guessing that the bypasses didnt show up before the show? or just no time to get them on? Looks great all together and skinned!

Yes, they just didnt show up in time for the show.

caddishack · 01-19-2011, 06:13 AM

I'll post up some pics of progress as soon as I figure out how to post pics

Bypasses got here Monday. Filler neck isn't pictured with a couple of body panel/splash guards that are on it. These Sniper buggies ROCK!

caddishack · 01-19-2011, 07:37 PM

We are doing things as fast as we can! Alot of small things left to do. Someone one told me to "slow down, it's not a race"! soon it will be time to race, I want to be ready. Going to miss passing you at KOH

sniperfab · 01-25-2011, 12:01 AM

It's not supposed to be a race when in the FAB shop!! But, now we want to see action shots!!! Come on already....

EyeWin · 01-30-2011, 05:06 AM

See if we can squeeze an update from Levi here.,
Levi, how's race prep going?
You feeling good about getting her loaded up to head out Friday?
Has your dad hugged you today?

HalfFastFord · 01-30-2011, 07:53 AM

so, if i were to win this, will it be Levi or Don who pulls it apart to have the chassis powdercoated? I get to pick the color, right?
