doing things slow just takes up space and costs me money

missing a few things.  really going to be hard to keep the wheelbase i wanted with a 205 if i go modern trans  a th350 old school short tail again would help, or a mated case which i really dont want to do. 

front shaft will be short, rear three link will be tight, not nearly enough room for a cell and tire like i thought with most similar buggies i have seen.

maybe trying to shoot for a 110 wheelbase is not the right idea
