SHORT?!?!?  No, I think "shrimpy" is the word (if that's a word).  Was that
your intent from the beginning or did someone have an accident with the
Sawz-all?  I was thinking Toyota Solara-like length, atleast that what your
original PhotoShop images reminded me of.

It sure will be a 'bouncy' ride.  Looks like removing all of that weight
made the car sit a lot higher too.  What are your thoughts on springs &
struts to bring the car back to normal height and minimize the inevitable
pogo-effect of such a short wheelbase?
