I brought that edition of max power just for that!!!! It was on the 3rd page all burnt out, then in the middle of the mag it was all looking pretty on the Max Power stand at Max Live 2005 (i believe!) It set on fire whilst in transit on the return from the show!!!!

I didn't realise calibre coachworks were taking the credit but didn't actually make it!!!!

Max Power also had that Project Slam which had a similar body kit on.

(i used to love Max Power)!!!!!!

i think they had a good idea with it and the kit, but the end product looked crap, How big are the arches!!!! i know it was on hydraulics therefore the arches couldn't follow the lines of the wheels but then again it was never gonna see tarmac!!!!
