    That's that one-off MoonCraft VX that has the funky turbo set-up.



    IIRC, they made all new cladding for that out of ABS.

    Modding our fenders for scissor-doors could be tricky if you've ever seen them without the cladding on. It's just flat sheet metal under there, so you'd likely need to fab something completely different using the stock fender cladding as a start.

    There are 4 "mooncraft" VX's in existance. The body kit was available to buy but was rediculously high priced. The rear end of the kit was pretty fugly! The turbo sat extremely low and would have been taken out on the first speed bump. If you can get onto the old VMAG VX site there was some stuff about it on there you could search for. I tried getting on the site but was unsucsessful. Don't know if it is still up or not.

    Nope Looks like Club Vmag died the slow painful death I thought it would... They say "reorganizing"... I'm glad we didn't stay there.

    I too would like a set of desert cladding. I am pretty sure I could come up with the design (1" diameter increase, 1-3" of flare) but alas, I dont know how to lay fiberglass.

    Let me know if you find someone to fab some.

    Laying glass aint too hard. You can find plenty of information on the web about it. Most of the work is in the after-layup, pre-painting phase where you sand sand sand and prime prime prime and sand prime sand prime sand prime, paint sand paint sand... you get the idea.

    Once the dust settles around here we'll be fabbing a one-peice FRP tilt nose for the Ebony which is headed for glory as a rally truck. The mold will be pulled from the IronMan since the Ebony is a little crunchy in the front, but the process will be documented and added to my VX site.

    Should be interesting!

    Yea I will more than likely have something made for it. I'll put the final design on here for any of you that want to do them.
